Product Insights
The Fresh Chile Company's Hatch Green Chile Pecans deliver a legally protected taste of New Mexico: pecans and flame-roasted Hatch chile powder both sourced from the state, with the Hatch label backed by a 2012 law ensuring genuine origin. Grown by a four-generation family orchard and hand-selected for quality, the nuts get an oil-based coating that spreads the chile evenly, producing an earthy, smoky flavor that reinforces roasted pecan's buttery richness while keeping heat mild at 2–3 out of 10. Each ounce is keto-friendly at ~1.3g net carbs and no added sugar, packs 20g of mostly unsaturated fat and 19 vitamins and minerals, but that same richness makes the snack calorie-dense, so portion control matters. The versatile seasoning survives baking—the brand's cookie recipe uses a cup of chopped pecans for 24 cookies—and the shelf-stable bag can be refrigerated or frozen for months. Priced at $5.95 for 4oz, it runs above some competitors, but buying a 12-bag bundle cuts the per-bag cost to $4.76, and a 90-day money-back guarantee backs the purchase. The tradeoff: an authentic, mild, nutrient-dense Hatch experience that demands mindful eating and a higher upfront price unless bought in bulk.

green chili pecans
These are amazing. The pecans are very fresh, and the seasoning was perfect. Not too spicy, and had a bit of a kick. Will get these again!!
Well done!
These are really tasty. They're at least as good as the ones that I have made it home. A generous portion for the price. Try them, you'll like them!
Pecan lover
I definitely love these pecans just a little heat and buttery flavor! I highly recommend these to any pecan lovers
Very delicious

My husband loved them
These will be a nice add to our charcuterie board.
Delicious
They are absolutely delicious. Like most of their products, I think that they need more salt. Not a big deal, I just add some. I'm sure that they would rather have less salt in their products and allow people to add more than to have too much.
Just enough hot
I have issues with spicy things in my mouth, but these have just enough hot and very taste.
Spicy!
These are a little too spicy for me to just snack on. BUT, they are awesome to use as a pecan crusted anything!
YUMMY!
Absolutely the best - very yummy and healthy, as well!
Great flavor green chile pecans
The flavor was just right...a bit of heat and pecans tasted fresh. The only minor drawback was not all of the green chile adheres, a fair amount of chile powder at the bottom of the bag.
not available
only giving this product this review as I ordered them as a Christmas present. After 10 days I was still not notified of any shipping. When I called I was told that they were out of stock. Not sure why it took me to call to find out. I can't review something no one ever received.

I bought the 16 oz. package as a 2020 Christmas gift for my parents. They loved them - thought these green chile pecans tasted wonderful. Such a delicious green chile flavor. I also bought for them the sweet and hot pecans, red chile pecans, praline pecans, red chile pistachios and green chile pistachios. They very much enjoyed all of them but were not sure if they liked the green or red versions better. I plan to buy these again - hopefully for myself this time...

I loved these and will order again! The only downside is that the nut was a little softer than I would like, but might be the way it’s processed.
