Chile roasted pecans

12 Servings

Ingredients

QuantityIngredient
cupOlive oil
cupKahlua liqueur
¼cupChimayo red chile powder (or use any other _pure_ chile powder)
cupSugar
1tablespoonSalt
3cupsWhole pecans; shelled

Directions

Preheat oven to 300F. Mix all the ingredients except the nuts together in a bowl. Add the nuts and toss until they are well coated. Spread on a flat sheet and back for 20-30 minutes, stirring frequently; you will probably need a stiff spatula to keep them from sticking. Nuts should be crispy when done. Try this with almonds, walnuts, etc. Eat as munchies, or use in salads instead of croutons.
