Rosemary Pecans
Beatriz da Costa
Our spiced pecan recipe produces an addictive (and relatively healthy) snack. These Rosemary Pecans are simple enough, in fact, to whip up for movie night or book club. But this method is also a smart way to add major flavor to an appetizer spread. Rather than putting out plain roasted nuts, take the (very little) time required to coat them in melted butter, sugar, cayenne, and salt, before roasting them in the oven for about 10 minutes. Once they’re toasted, stir the pecans with chopped fresh rosemary for an earthy, woodsy finish. And FYI: These nuts taste great with sparkling wine.
How to Make It
Step 1
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.
Step 2
Transfer the pecans to a rimmed baking sheet and arrange in a single layer. Bake, stirring occasionally, until toasted, 10 to 12 minutes.
Step 3
Add the rosemary and toss to combine. Serve warm or at room temperature.

This doesn't look like a fish recipe to me!
