Roasted mexican pumpkin seeds

1 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
½ pounds Raw Mexican pumpkin seeds
1 Spray olive or corn oil
½ teaspoon Ground chili powder; not cayenne
½ teaspoon Crushed red pepper flakes
½ teaspoon Kosher salt

Directions

Preheat oven to 250. Mix chili powder, pepper flakes, and salt. Put the seeds in a bowl, and spray them with oil. Sprinkle the dried spices over them, tossing to distribute evenly. Spread on a baking sheet in one layer and bake until you hear them popping and they are browned slightly, between 5 and 10 minutes. Cool completely and store in an air-tight container.

NOTES : These are really, really good to have on hand (and to hide in a container in the glove compartment of your car). Yield: ½ pound.
