Skinny Old Fashioned Popcorn
Ingredients
- ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
- 3 tablespoons reduced-fat butter or Smart Balance Light
- 1 cup white kernel popcorn, see shopping tips
- Salt to taste (~ 1 teaspoon)
Instructions
- In a large nonstick pot, heat oil and butter over medium heat.
- Stir in popcorn, coating kernels, cover and heat until kernels start to pop. This will take about 5 minutes. Turn heat to high and shake the pan as necessary to prevent burning while popping. Continue cooking until all kernels are popped.
- Immediately pour half the popcorn into a large bowl. Sprinkle with a little salt, add remaining popcorn, and top with a little more salt.
