Crisp, salty, buttery, and bursting with amazing flavors, these gourmet popcorn recipes are a must for anyone who loves popcorn!


Looking for ways to jazz up regular popcorn?  Well look no further!  Here is a deliciously buttery, truffle and herb variety, and a flavor packed sriracha lime version to meet your gourmet popcorn needs!

Easy Gourmet Popcorn |Crisp, salty, buttery, and bursting with amazing flavors, these gourmet popcorn recipes are a must for anyone who loves popcorn! | http://thechunkychef.comYou guys… popcorn is just amazing.  Maybe not to everyone, but to me… yep!  Whenever we go to the movies, I swear I get more excited about the popcorn than the actual movie lol.  I think I may have a problem.

Obviously there are a TON of ways to enjoy popcorn at home… my favorite way being the old fashioned way on the stovetop.  But, let’s face it, sometimes I really don’t feel like hassling with the oil, the heavy pot and the mess… so what’s a gal to do?  She picks up a bag of BOOMCHICKAPOP of course!!

Have you all tried this stuff before?  If not, you seriously need to 🙂  It tastes like you just popped it right on your stovetop, yet comes in an awesomely convenient bag!  BOOMCHICKAPOP uses NO artificial ingredients… so you can feel good about eating it and serving it to your family.  Simple and delicious!

One of the things I love about these recipes is that all you really have to do is melt butter and stir things together… could that get any easier?

The first flavor combo I came up with is an ultra savory herbed butter with truffle oil.  I also garnished the popcorn with a sprinkle of freshly grated Parmesan cheese.  Talk about one addicting bowl of gourmet popcorn!

For my second flavor I wanted to really pick some flavors that pack a punch, so I went with sriracha lime.

If you’re worried about heat, fear not… this just has great spice flavor, not really a lot of hot-ness going on there.  Although, if you DID want heat, you could certainly stir some cayenne pepper into the butter mixture 😉

These gourmet popcorn “recipes” are really a guideline… and you can adjust the amounts to your liking 🙂

    These are some great ideas! I’m definitely going to try the cayenne in the butter option! I’m always looking for a light snack to have out on the counter when guests come over and are having a drink while I finish making dinner. Can’t wait to try this!
