I made this one night, then the next night, and the next......... Need I say more? Yummy! :)
Killer Garlic Bread
- 1 stick salted butter
- 5 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dried dill
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
- pinch cayenne pepper
Place the stick of butter and chopped garlic in a microwave safe bowl. Heat for about 1 minute in the microwave or until butter has completely melted. Put all of your dried herbs & garlic powder in with the butter and finish with a pinch of cayenne pepper. Let the mixture sit until it hardens up again. With a soft spatula, smear on each half of your bread with butter and put the loaf back together. Wrap with aluminum foil and bake in the oven at 350 for about 20 minutes. Turn the broiler on and toast the tops of the bread for about 2 minutes. Make sure they don't burn. Now you have your garlic bread. Be careful, it goes fast. Make sure you get a few pieces before your company demolishes it all!
-This recipe was enough for an Italian Batard that was over 12 inches long and about 6 inches wide.
