Blazin' Cajun Popcorn

INGREDIENTS

4 quarts freshly popped corn
1/3 cup butter, melted
2 teaspoons hot smoked paprika
1-1/2 teaspoons onion powder
1-1/2 teaspoons garlic powder
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
½ teaspoon chili powder
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon lemon pepper

DIRECTIONS

Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Line a baking sheet with foil or a silicone baking sheet and set aside.

Put the popcorn in a large, clean paper bag or a washable muslin bag. In a small bowl, whisk together the butter, paprika, onion powder, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, chili powder, salt, and lemon pepper. Drizzle the mixture over the popcorn, fold over the top of the bag, and shake until the popcorn is coated and moist.

Spread the popcorn evenly over the baking sheet and bake until the popcorn is dry, 5 to 7 minutes.
