Comment préparer Toasted Pecan Pesto
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Spread 1 cup pecan halves in a single layer on a shallow baking sheet. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until fragrant and lightly toasted. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
- Let the pecans cool completely for about 20 minutes.
- While pecans cool, prepare the remaining ingredients.
- In a food processor, combine the cooled pecans, 2 cups packed fresh basil leaves, 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil, 2 cloves garlic, and a pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Process until smooth, scraping down the sides as needed. Add more olive oil, 1 tablespoon at a time, if needed to reach desired consistency.
- Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
