Ingredients

1 teaspoon vegetable oil
water
1 cup raw pumpkin seeds
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon chili-lime seasoning (such as Tajin®)

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet with oil.
In a saucepan, bring 6 cups of water to a boil. Add the pumpkin seeds and salt. Reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 10 minutes. Strain the seeds and pat them dry with a paper towel. Spread the seeds in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet, then sprinkle the chili-lime seasoning evenly over the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Take the baking sheet out of the oven, stir the seeds, and spread them back into a single layer. Return the baking sheet to the oven. Repeat this process twice more, stirring every 10 minutes, until the seeds are golden brown and perfectly crisp.
