To begin with this recipe, we have to first prepare a few components. You can cook mike's garlic parmesan popcorn using 15 ingredients and 6 steps. Here is how you can achieve it.

The ingredients needed to make Mike's Garlic Parmesan Popcorn:
  1. Take Garlic Butter
  2. Make ready 4 tbsp Quality Salted Butter [like Tilamook]
  3. Prepare 1/2 tbsp Fine Minced Garlic
  4. Take 1/4 tsp Table Salt
  5. Make ready 1 dash Olive Oil [very small dash]
  6. Prepare Popcorn
  7. Make ready 1 cup Uncooked Popcorn Kernels [or, 2 bags microwave popcorn]
  8. Get 2 tbsp Vegetable Oil
  9. Take 1/4 tsp Garlic Powder
  10. Get Cheese & Salt
  11. Prepare 1/4 cup Quality Powdered Parmesan Cheese [or, as desired]

Instructions to make Mike's Garlic Parmesan Popcorn:
  1. In a Ziplock Bag, heat your garlic butter and ingredients listed in that section. Leave bag unzipped and watch bag very closely while in the microwave. The bag WILL melt. Just heat butter enough to melt it.
  2. Once melted, zip up bag, lightly massage butter and let sit on the counter for a few minutes to allow the garlic to infuse into the butter.
  3. Heat the oil and garlic powder on high heat in a large pot with lid. Add raw corn kernels, mix and place lid on top. Cook / shake vigorously for 1 minute +. Or, until all kernels are fully popped but, not burnt. If using microwavable bags, cook to manufactures specifications. But, watch, listen and smell closely. Microwavable popcorn burns VERY easily.
  4. Massage garlic butter bag again and snip a [very slight] opening in the corner of the bag. Just big enough that any minced garlic can freely exit it and the butter sauce only drizzles.
  5. Evenly drizzle garlic butter over popcorn and sprinkle powdered parmesean cheese over the damp surfaces. You don't want your popcorn saturated. Just lightly coated. I use a high quality, lightly powdered Parmesan from our local pizzeria. Salt with a fine popcorn salt [like McDonald's salt] if desired as well. Mix up popcorn. Repeat again, then, as you desire.
  6. Unless you own a very fine cheese grader - like Olive Garden uses -don't use fresh grated parmesean. It'll only fall to the bottom of your bowl and you won't taste it at all. Sprinkled Rosemary goes well with this recipe as well. Enjoy!
