Chili Lime GInger Roasted Pistachios

I am obsessed with pistachios and didn’t think they could get better. But they did. These Chili Lime roasted pistachios are going to be made on repeat and are also great gifts (if you can make them without eating them all).

Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 2 hours
Total Time 2 hours 20 minutes
Servings 12 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups whole pistachios
  • 3/4 cup lime juice
  • 1 tbs olice oil
  • 1 tsp salt (more to taste)
  • 1 tsp cayenne (more to taste)
  • 1 tsp ginger
  • dash of paprika
  • dash of cumin
  • 2 tbs honey (more to taste)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 230 degrees fairenheit. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper.
  • Mix all ingredients except for the pistachios together in a bowl. Adjust seasoning to taste- I made several adjustments while working on the dressing, like adjusting spice with cayenne/paprkia and sweetness with honey. You may also need to tweak the salt.
  • Add the pistachios to the bowl and let the pistachios sit in the mixture for around 30 minutes. If you used actual limes, let the halves soak in the mixture as well.
  • Spread pistachios over the parchment paper and bake for 45 minutes. After 45 minutes, lower the temperature in the oven to 175, and cook for another hour-ish, really trying to dry out the pistachios. Note- try a pistachio every now and then and make sure the inside when you crack it open is completely dry.
  • Once insides of pistachios are crunchy and completely dry, let cool and enjoy.
