I love to add these pecans to salads of all kinds. Of course, they are pretty great just as they are! Feel free to adjust the seasoning to suit your individual taste. Also, walnuts and mixed nuts are really good fixed this way.

I followed the recipe exactly and the pecans turned out burnt. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These pecans are a little too spicy for my taste, but they're still good.

These pecans are the perfect balance of sweet and spicy! I love the crunchy texture and the way the glaze coats each pecan. I will definitely be making these again and again.
