  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne powder
  • 1/2 tablespoon oil
  • 1 tablespoon fresh squeezed lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon lime zest
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 300F
  2. Add all ingredients for the Chili-Lime mixture to a bowl and mix well
  3. Add the nuts and stir to coat
  4. Add nuts to a lined baking sheet and add to oven
  5. Turn off oven heat and let residual heat dry out the nuts
  6. Keep in oven until dry, approximately 10-15 minutes

Notes

  • This recipe is for 1 cup of nuts but it can be double or tripled at will.
  • I used roasted nuts here. If you want to use unroasted, I would probably roast them first and then add the Chili-Lime mixture afterwards.
