Pistachios are such a staple in my pantry because they work perfectly in both sweet treats and savory dishes. I grew up snacking on these little green gems, and they remain my absolute favorite nut to keep on hand for a quick bite throughout the day.

This simple preparation brings out the best in the nuts with just a touch of sea salt and heat. It is a fantastic way to enjoy them straight from the oven when you need something satisfying and wholesome to tide you over until your next meal.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups shelled raw pistachios
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon smoked paprika

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

  2. 2

    Spread the shelled pistachios in an even layer on a large baking sheet.

  3. 3

    Drizzle the olive oil over the nuts and toss them gently until they are lightly coated.

  4. 4

    Sprinkle the sea salt and smoked paprika over the top and stir again to distribute the seasonings.

  5. 5

    Roast the nuts in the oven for about 8 to 10 minutes, making sure to shake the pan halfway through so they toast evenly.

  6. 6

    Remove the pan from the oven and let the pistachios cool completely on the tray before eating.

💡 Tips

Store your roasted pistachios in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week. If you want to get creative, try tossing them into a fresh salad or sprinkling them over creamy yogurt for an extra crunch.
