Rosemary Pecans

Ingredients:

  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • ⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 cups pecan halves
  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary

Directions:

Heat oven to 375° F. Melt the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Stir in the sugar, cayenne pepper, and ½ teaspoon salt. Add the pecans and toss to coat.

Transfer the pecans to a rimmed baking sheet and arrange in a single layer. Bake, stirring occasionally, until toasted, 10 to 12 minutes.

Add the rosemary and toss to combine. Serve warm or at room temperature.

I’ve made something just like this and had fantastic results and responses. Gave little jars of these out as gifts for the Holidays. I lost the recipe and have been sad about that. Thank goodness for the Internet! Here it is – direct from Real Simple.
