Makes about 3 cups.

1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup water
1 to 2 teaspoons ground chipotle chiles
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 1/2 cups pecan halves

Combine sugar, water, ground chiles and salt in saucepan and cook over medium heat until syrup spins a thread (232 degrees F on a candy thermometer). Remove from heat. Add pecans, stirring until well coated. Pour onto well-greased baking sheet, using two forks to separate nuts as they cool. Store airtight.
