When she’s not fighting the bad guys, engaging in drama along with Fitz, or just looking fabulous during ABC’s hit collection, Scandal, there’s nothing Olivia Pope (Kerry Washington) likes more than kicking back at home with a bottle of red-colored and a bowl of popcorn.

His forthcoming cookbook, Marcus Off-Duty: The Quality recipes I Cook at Home ($35; available for pre-order at amazon . com. com) is filled with approachable, crowd-pleasing recipes for the home chef- which of course , includes popcorn. This spicy-sweet Ethiopian-inspired snacks topping is a favorite of the chef and his wife, Cyber.
