Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups pecans
  • 3 Tablespoons melted butter
  • 6 Tablespoons sugar
  • 1 Tablespoon sea salt
  • 3 Tablespoons chopped rosemary
  • 3 Tablespoons orange zest

Instructions
 

  • Roast the pecans in a 350 degree oven for about 10 minutes. Make sure that you watch them. Nothing is more frustrating (or expensive) than burning 4 cups of pecans. Not that I speak from experience or anything, but nuts go from perfect to burnt in seconds.
    Roasted pecans on baking sheet for baking recipes and desserts.
  • Finely chop the rosemary.

  • Zest 3 oranges. I got about a Tablespoon of zest from each.
    Juice zest of fresh lemons on wooden cutting board with whole lemons and zested peel.
  • Melt the butter in a large saute pan.

  • Add the pecans, sugar, salt, rosemary, and orange zest.
