Possibly. The last time I made chile oil, I made it outdoors.
It doesn't require a lot of heat to draw out the spicy goodness
from the chile (and kill any Clostridium botulinum that might be
lurking). Too much heat will burn the chiles.

There, I Americanized my spelling of chile:

chile = spicy Capsicums
chili = spicy stew made with chiles
chilly = It's cold outside

Mind you, not everyone adheres to this.
