No egg whites. These are a microwave recipe!
Orange-Spiced Nuts
1 12-oz. can mixed salted nuts
2 Tbsp sugar
1 Tbsp butter
2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
2 tsp dried grated orange peel
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper (or more to taste)
In a large microwaveable mixing bowl, combine nuts, sugar, butter, and Worcestershire sauce. Cook on HIGH in microwave for 5-6 minutes until nuts are browned, stirring twice during cooking. Stir in orange peel and ground red pepper and mix well.
Spread on cookie sheet lined with foil to completely cool, stirring once or twice while cooling to break up nuts.
NOTES : I usually buy the extra large cans of Planters mixed nuts at BJ’s Wholesale Club – that makes about 2 1/2 batches of this recipe.
I also usually add more Worcestershire sauce, dried orange peel, and cayenne, depending on who I am making it for.
