Roast chickpeas and shallots
In a 12-inch frying pan, warm 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add the chickpeas and shallots. Season with salt and cook until the chickpeas are toasted and the shallots are slightly caramelized, about 5 minutes.
Reduce the heat to medium, add the pasta to pan with the reserved pasta water, cherry tomatoes, dill, feta, wild arugula, and sherry vinegar. Toss well to coat and cook until the arugula is just wilted, about 2 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
