Steps:
- Wash and drain the chicken breasts.

- Sprinkle the dry mixture on the chicken breasts, making sure to get both sides.
- Marinate the chicken breasts in the fridge for 4 hours.
- After 4 hours or so, preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Put a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Melt the coconut oil in the saucepan. Put 3 or 4 kernels of popcorn in the saucepan. Once they pop, add the rest of kernels, put on the lid and take off the heat. After 30 seconds or so, place back onto the stovetop. Shake often. Once the popping reduces to every 4 seconds, remove from heat.

Steps:
- Mix flour, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper together in a bowl. Beat eggs and lemon juice together in a separate bowl.
- Heat 1 1/2 to 2 inches of oil in a large pot over medium heat.
- Dip the chicken pieces into the flour mixture, then the egg mixture, and again into the flour mixture.
- Test the oil to make sure it is hot enough: a small amount of flour dropped in should sizzle. Place 10 pieces of chicken into the hot oil; cook until golden brown, about 8 minutes. Remove from the oil and drain on a paper towel lined plate and season with salt. Repeat with remaining chicken.

Tips:
- Choose the right popcorn: Not all popcorn kernels are created equal. For this recipe, you'll want to use a popcorn kernel that is specifically designed for popping in oil. These kernels are typically smaller and have a higher hull-to-popcorn ratio, which results in a crispier, more flavorful popcorn.
- Use a large pot or Dutch oven: You'll need a large pot or Dutch oven that can hold at least 8 cups of popcorn. This will give the popcorn plenty of room to pop and expand.
- Don't overcrowd the pot: When adding the popcorn kernels to the pot, don't overcrowd them. You want to make sure that each kernel has enough space to pop properly.
- Use high heat: Popcorn pops best at high heat. Heat the oil in the pot over medium-high heat until it reaches 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Shake the pot constantly: Once the popcorn starts popping, shake the pot constantly. This will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the popcorn from burning.
- Don't add the seasoning too early: Wait until the popcorn has finished popping before adding the seasoning. This will help to ensure that the seasoning sticks to the popcorn.
Conclusion:
BBQ popcorn chicken is a fun and easy snack or appetizer that is perfect for parties or game day. It is also a great way to use up leftover popcorn. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make a delicious and flavorful snack that everyone will love. So next time you're looking for a tasty treat, give BBQ popcorn chicken a try.
