Parmesan Chive Popcorn
Savory popcorn made on the cooktop in minutes!
Servings 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups finely grated Parmesan (use a microplane to grate)
- ¼ cup chives, chopped finely
- 3 Tablespoons coconut oil (or other cooking oil)
- ½ cup white popping corn
- ¼ -1/3 cup melted butter (some people like lighter butter, some heavier. You do you)
- sea salt to taste
Instructions
- Grate cheese with a microplane and chop chives
- Place a large pot on cooktop on high heat, add oil and three kernels of corn
- When kernel pops, carefully add the rest of the popcorn and place lid on pot
- Lower heat to medium/high and shake the heck out of that pot until you hear the popping stop
- Remove lid, allow to cool a bit
- Melt butter in a small sauce pan
- Use a knife to stir popcorn as you drizzle with melted butter, continue to stir with a knife as you alternate sprinkling with chives and parmesan
- Taste. Parmesan is quite salty so I want you to get an idea of how much salt to add. Add a pinch of salt at a time while stirring and stop when you are happy with the taste!
- Share even though you'll be tempted to eat it all yourself
