Recipes Appetizers and Snacks Snacks Popcorn Recipes Homemade Chili Seasoning Popcorn 5.0 (3) 3 Reviews 3 Photos Popcorn as good as the theater's, with a kick! The seasoning is salty, spicy, and a little smoky. All you need is a large pot or metal bowl; I use a large 2-gallon metal bowl. Omit the chili powders if you don't like it spicy.

Something went wrong. Our team is working on it. Original recipe (1X) yields 4 servings 2 tablespoons canola oil ½ cup white popcorn kernels ½ teaspoon popcorn salt, divided ⅛ teaspoon garlic powder ⅛ teaspoon onion powder ⅛ teaspoon ground cayenne pepper ⅛ teaspoon ground chipotle chile pepper ⅛ teaspoon ground ancho chile pepper Directions Heat canola oil in a large pot over medium-high heat; add 1 popcorn kernel to hot oil. The oil is ready when kernel pops. Pour popcorn kernels into hot oil; season with 1/2 of the popcorn salt. Stir to coat. Cover the pot with a sheet of aluminum foil. Poke about 10 holes into the aluminum foil using a knife. Cook popcorn until all kernels are popped, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove the pot from heat. Sprinkle popcorn with remaining popcorn salt, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, chipotle chile pepper, and ancho chile pepper. Toss to evenly coat. Tips I like using a stainless metal bowl, so I don't have to transfer the popcorn when it's done; you just have to let the bowl cool slightly. If you make the popcorn several times, it will likely start to make the bowl a little blackened/seasoned on the bottom, so I use it exclusively for popcorn.
