    Prepare the Crawfish

    In a separate skillet, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the cooked crawfish tails, Old Bay seasoning, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Sauté for around 3-4 minutes until heated through.

  3. 3

    Combine and Serve

    In a large bowl, combine the popped popcorn and the seasoned crawfish mixture. Toss gently to combine. Serve immediately and enjoy your Popcorn Crawfish!
