- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon lime zest
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, chili powder, lime zest, lime juice, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to create a uniform mixture.
Step 3
Add the almonds to the bowl and toss them until they are evenly coated with the spice mixture.
Step 4
Spread the coated almonds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Step 5
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the almonds for 12 to 15 minutes, stirring halfway through the cooking time to ensure even roasting.
Step 6
Remove the baking sheet from the oven when the almonds are golden brown and aromatic.
Step 7
Let the almonds cool completely on the baking sheet. They will continue to crisp up as they cool.
Step 8
Once cooled, transfer the chili lime almonds to an airtight container for storage. Enjoy as a snack or use them as a crunchy topping for salads.
