Begin by heating the butter in a 4-quart glass casserole dish within your microwave oven. Combine the melted butter with brown sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon, and water in a bowl. Microwave on high for 1 minute, then thoroughly mix the ingredients until well combined. Add pecans to the mixture and ensure they are evenly coated with the buttery mixture. Continue microwaving on high for an additional 4 to 5 minutes, stirring the contents every minute. Remove the cooked nuts from the microwave and spread them out onto a sheet of parchment or waxed paper to allow them to cool down.
