Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Place the oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. When hot, add the pumpkin seeds and saute 3 minutes, stirring frequently. Transfer to an ungreased baking sheet and spread the seeds in a single layer. In a small bowl, stir together the salt, cayenne, black pepper and paprika. Sprinkle evenly over the seeds and bake 12 minutes or until crisp. Drain on paper towels and cool completely.
