Bayou Popcorn
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add 3-4 popcorn kernels to the pot and cover with a lid. Once the kernels pop, the oil is ready.
-
Add the remaining popcorn kernels to the pot and cover with the lid. Shake the pot gently to coat the kernels with oil.
-
As the kernels begin to pop, shake the pot occasionally to prevent burning. Once the popping slows down, remove the pot from the heat and let it sit for a minute to ensure all the kernels have popped.
-
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Stir in the Cajun seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the spices are fragrant.
-
Pour the seasoned butter over the popped popcorn, using a spatula to mix and coat the kernels evenly. Add salt to taste and toss the popcorn until well combined.
-
Spread the Bayou Popcorn on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to cool and allow the butter to set. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for later snacking.
