Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups of Oyster Crackers
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional, for a spicy kick)
- Salt to taste
- Fresh parsley, finely chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, and salt. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, drizzle the Oyster Crackers with olive oil. Toss gently until evenly coated.
- Sprinkle the seasoning mix over the crackers and toss again to ensure all crackers are well coated.
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Spread the seasoned oyster crackers in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 10-12 minutes, stirring halfway through, until crispy and golden brown.
- Once cooled slightly, sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley. Serve with seafood dips, such as seafood salsa or creamy aioli, for a maritime-themed snack.
Notes
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week to maintain crispiness.
- For longer storage, keep crackers in the freezer and reheat in the oven before serving to restore crunch.
- Feel free to add lemon zest or herbs like thyme for extra oceanic flavor.
