This sweet and spicy sriracha popcorn is the perfect snack for movie night or game day. Air-popped popcorn is tossed with a flavorful mixture of honey, Sriracha sauce, and soy sauce to create a delicious balance of sweet and spicy flavors.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot with a tight-fitting lid over medium-high heat. Add the popcorn kernels and cover the pot with the lid. Shake the pot gently to coat the kernels in the oil.
Cook the popcorn, shaking the pot occasionally, until the popping slows down to 2-3 seconds between pops. Remove the pot from the heat and transfer the popcorn to a large bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, Sriracha sauce, soy sauce, garlic powder, and salt to make the sauce.
Pour the sauce over the popcorn and toss to coat evenly.
Spread the popcorn out on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F for 5-7 minutes, or until the popcorn is crispy and the sauce is caramelized.
Remove the popcorn from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
