Garlic Bread
This garlic bread has just the right amount of garlic and butter on a crispy slice of bread.
Servings: 8 people
Ingredients
- 1 loaf Italian or French bread (not a baguette)
- 1 stick butter, softened
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- ½ tsp dried parsley
- ¼ tsp salt
Instructions
- Preheat the broiler on your oven to 450°.
- Slice the bread in half lengthwise, leaving a top and a bottom half. Separate the halves, cut side up, on a large baking sheet.
- In a bowl, stir together the butter, garlic, parsley, and salt. Spread this mixture over both sides of the loaf.
- Heat the garlic bread in the broiler for 3-5 minutes, until it is just starting to brown. (You need to watch it carefully; check it often the first time you make it.)
- Remove the garlic bread from the oven. Slice it into strips.
