Popcorn With Lime And Chili Recipes

CREAMY CHILI-LIME CORN

Steps:

• Whisk together the cilantro, yogurt, lime zest and juice, 1 teaspoon water and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Set aside.
• Pat the corn dry with paper towels and toss with the chili powder and garlic in a medium bowl. Melt the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Once the foam subsides, add the corn and cook undisturbed until it starts to brown slightly in some spots, about 2 minutes. Continue to cook, stirring, until warmed through, about 3 minutes.
• Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in the lime-yogurt mixture, 3 tablespoons of the Parmesan and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Transfer to a serving dish and top with cilantro, the remaining 1 tablespoon Parmesan and a sprinkle of chili powder.

CHILE LIME POPCORN

Steps:

• Heat the oil and salt in a 4-quart pan (with lid) on medium-high heat. Add the popcorn, cover and reduce the heat when it starts to pop. Shake occasionally during popping, and remove from the heat when almost all of the kernels are popped.
• Season with the chile lime powder, stir in the Chile Lime Pumpkin Seeds and serve.
• Toss the pumpkin seeds with the chile lime powder and olive oil, making sure every single seed is coated.
• Heat a small saute pan on medium-high heat. Toast the pumpkin seeds until crispy, making sure not to burn them, about 3 minutes. Cool and serve. Yield: 1 cup
