Instructions
Over a small bowl and rub the parsley between your fingers until it becomes a coarse powder. Add the remaining spices to the bowl and stir to combine.
Pour 2 tablespoons of olive oil into a large, deep pot and swirl to coat the bottom. place the pot over medium heat, add 3 kernels of popcorn and cover. When all 3 kernels pop that means the oil is hot enough. Add the rest of the popcorn to the pot, cover, and give it a few shakes. (Hold the lid tightly when you shake, you don't want any kitchen accidents). Cook the popcorn, shaking occasionally until the popping sounds have stopped. (about 4-5 minutes)
Immediately pour the popcorn into a VERY large bowl. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and toss with your hands. Add the parmesan cheese and toss again. Finally add the spice mixture and toss until well coated.
