Stovetop Chili Lime Popcorn!
A delightfully seasoned homemade popcorn made the old fashioned way, on the cooktop. Note: popcorn, like all food, is subjective. You may use more or less butter and spices to suit your taste.

Ingredients
- 1/3 cup butter, melted
- 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/8 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon sea salt

- 3 tablespoons coconut oil

Melt butter in small sauce pan

Add spices and lime zest

Stir well and turn off heat

Add 3 kernels of corn and wait for one to pop

When kernel pops, add the 1/2 cup of corn to pot
-
Place lid on pot
-
Shake pot vigorously as corn pops (2-3 minutes, you may need to turn heat down a little)
-
When corn stops popping turn off heat and remove lid, allow a few minutes for popcorn to cool (otherwise it will shrink when butter is added)
