Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Unsalted shelled pistachios
- 1 teaspoon Chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Lime zest
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
In a large mixing bowl, combine chili powder, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and lime zest. Mix well to create a spice blend.
Add the unsalted shelled pistachios to the spice mixture and toss until the pistachios are well-coated.
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the lime juice and olive oil until well combined.
Drizzle the lime juice and olive oil mixture over the spiced pistachios. Toss until the pistachios are evenly coated with the liquid.
Spread the spiced and coated pistachios in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the pistachios are lightly toasted and fragrant.
Remove from the oven and allow the pistachios to cool completely on the baking sheet. This will allow them to crisp up further.
Once cooled, transfer the chili lime pistachios to an airtight container for storage. Enjoy as a low-carb snack!
