Melt the olive oil and butter together in a saucepan over low heat. This gentle melting process ensures a smooth and even coating for your pecans.
-
Add the Worcestershire sauce, Tabasco sauce, ground cumin, paprika, and garlic powder to the melted mixture. Stir well until everything is fully dissolved and incorporated, creating a fragrant and flavorful base for your pecans.
-
Toss the pecan halves into the saucepan, ensuring theyβre thoroughly coated with the spiced mixture. This step is crucial for infusing every nut with the delicious flavors of the spices.
-
Spread the coated pecans onto a baking sheet, preferably one with a lip to make it easier to shake and turn the pecans during baking. Ensure theyβre spread out evenly to allow for even roasting.
-
Bake the pecans in the preheated oven for 15 minutes, remembering to shake and turn them every 5 minutes to prevent sticking and ensure theyβre evenly toasted. This process results in perfectly crunchy and golden-brown pecans.
-
Season your freshly baked pecans with a sprinkle of coarse salt, enhancing their flavors and adding a delightful crunch. Toss them gently to ensure the salt is evenly distributed.
-
Store your spiced pecans in an airtight container once theyβve cooled completely. This helps preserve their freshness and ensures theyβre ready to enjoy whenever cravings strike.
