Fiesta Lime Popcorn
You’ll go crazy for these kernels dusted with an addictive zesty seasoning. The lime brings freshness and brightness and the Cajun blend delivers a perfect pop of spice.
Ingredients
- 12 cups light popcorn, air-popped or store-bought
- 1½ to 2 tablespoons Creole or Cajun seasoning blend*
- 2 to 3 tablespoons pecorino or cotija, finely grated
- 1 tablespoon freshly grated lime zest or more to taste
- *Most blends already contain salt. If you use one without salt, add 1 to 2 tsp salt into seasoning blend. You can always taste and sprinkle on more salt if needed right before serving.
Instructions
- Spread popcorn out on a baking sheet and mist with olive oil spray until well coated. Sprinkle seasoning blend evenly over the popcorn. Mist popcorn again, and sprinkle with cheese and lime zest. Serve immediately.
