Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 25m

Yield about 10 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

7 cups pork rinds, broken into bite-size pieces (about 3 ounces)
6 cups lime-flavored tortilla chips, broken into bite-size pieces (about 6 ounces)
1 1/2 cups corn nuts
1 1/2 cups honey roasted peanuts
2 limes, zest from 2 and juice from 1
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Toss the pork rinds, tortilla chips, corn nuts and peanuts together in a large bowl.Whisk the lime zest and juice, Worcestershire, chili powder, cayenne and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a separate bowl. Pour the sauce over the snack mix and toss to coat well. Spread out on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until the mix is toasted and almost completely dry, about 10 minutes, tossing about halfway through.
  • Let cool completely, and then store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Tips:

  • Choose the right nuts: Use a variety of nuts, such as almonds, cashews, pecans, and peanuts. Avoid nuts that are already salted or flavored.
  • Use fresh spices: Ground spices will not provide as much flavor as freshly ground spices. If possible, use whole spices and grind them yourself just before using.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When roasting the nuts, make sure there is enough space between them so that they can evenly roast.
  • Roast the nuts until they are fragrant and golden brown: This will take about 10-12 minutes. Be careful not to over-roast them, as they can quickly burn.
  • Let the nuts cool completely before adding the spices: This will help the spices adhere to the nuts.
  • Store the nut mix in an airtight container: This will keep them fresh and flavorful for up to 2 weeks.

Conclusion:

This spicy nut mix is a delicious and easy snack that is perfect for parties, picnics, or just enjoying at home. It is also a great way to use up any leftover nuts you may have.
