Spicy Stovetop Popcorn

Spicy Stovetop Popcorn

Who doesn't love some freshly popped popcorn when you're watching a movie at home. I know we do, so that's why I've put together this delightfully easy recipe for stovetop popcorn that's like being at the movies without leaving your home. We make it a bit spicy using our Red Hot Chili Garlic Salt to season the buttery kernels with. Give it a try, we know you'll love it.

 

Ingredients

1/3 cup popping corn kernels
2 tablespoons coconut oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1-2 teaspoons Side Hustle Red Hot Chili Garlic Salt
  1. Heat up a heavy bottomed pot that has a tight fitting lid on medium high heat for 2-3 minutes. 
  2. Add the coconut oil and popcorn kernels to the pan. Allow to heat for 3-4 minutes and add the butter on top and put the lid on a slight angle, leaving room for steam to escape.
  3. As soon as you hear the first kernel pop, swirl the pot on the burner while the rest of the kernels pop, ensuring the already popped kernels do not burn. 
  4. When the popping slows down and you only hear one or two kernels popping every 5 seconds, take the pot off the heat and remove the lid. Transfer popcorn to a bowl and season with the Red Hot Chili Garlic Salt or seasoning of your choice.
