Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 cup Popcorn kernels
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried parsley (optional)
Instructions
In a large pot with a tight-fitting lid, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
Add a couple of popcorn kernels to the oil and cover the pot. Once the kernels pop, the oil is hot enough.
Add the remaining popcorn kernels to the pot in an even layer. Cover with the lid and shake the pot gently to coat the kernels in oil.
As the popcorn begins to pop, shake the pot occasionally to prevent burning. Once the popping slows to about 2-3 seconds between pops, remove the pot from the heat.
Immediately pour the popped popcorn into a large bowl and set aside.
In a small saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over low heat. Mix in the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and dried parsley (if using). Stir until well combined.
Drizzle the flavored butter over the popcorn while tossing gently to coat each piece evenly.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Onion Garlic Popcorn!
