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.
Servings 8 cups
Ingredients
- ⅓ cup butter, melted
- ⅛ teaspoon garlic powder
- ⅛ teaspoon onion powder
- ½ teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- zest of one lime
- 3 tablespoons coconut oil
- ½ cup white popping corn
Instructions
- Melt butter in small sauce pan
- Add spices and lime zest
- Stir well and turn off heat
- Add coconut oil to a large pot
- Turn on high 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)
- Whisk butter well (spices tend to sit on the bottom) and use a knife to stir popcorn as you slowly drizzle spiced butter over corn
- Stop when needed to stir well and then drizzle more until all the butter is gone
- Serve!
