INGREDIENTS

  • Base Ingredients

    • 2 tablespoons canola oil
    • 🍿 ½ cup white popcorn kernels
  • Spices and Seasonings

    • 🧂 ½ teaspoon popcorn salt, divided
    • ⅛ teaspoon garlic powder
    • ⅛ teaspoon onion powder
    • ⅛ teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
    • ⅛ teaspoon ground chipotle chile pepper

STEPS

1

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.

2

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.

3

Sprinkle popcorn with remaining popcorn salt, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, chipotle chile pepper, and ancho chile pepper. Toss to evenly coat.
