- Remove from oven and chop or use as desired.
To toast pecans on the stove:

Notes
- Pecans: Cooking times vary depending on which method you choose and how many pecans you are toasting. And don't walk away! They can go from zero to burnt in under a minute.
- Oil: Toasting pecans in fat (olive oil or clarified butter, for example), is optional. It adds more flavor and helps seasonings stick, if you want to use them.
- Yield: The recipe as written makes 1 cup of toasted pecans (enough for 4 servings, ¼ cup each). It can easily be doubled or tripled as needed.
- Storage: Store raw and roasted pecans for a year or more in the refrigerator or the freezer (not the pantry). They spoil easily, especially when roasted.
