- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 300°F (150°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the raw pistachios, olive oil, lime zest, and lime juice.
Add the chili powder, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, and sea salt to the bowl. Mix well to ensure the pistachios are evenly coated with the seasoning.
Spread the seasoned pistachios in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, stirring halfway through, until the pistachios are toasted and the seasoning is fragrant.
Remove from the oven and allow the pistachios to cool completely on the baking sheet.
Once cooled, store the Chili Lime Pistachios in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 weeks.
