Ingredients
  

  • 3 large cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter softened
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon fresh oregano finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 loaf French bread about 12 inches
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese optional

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the minced garlic, softened butter, parsley, oregano, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
  3. Slice the French bread in half lengthwise.
  4. Spread the garlic butter mixture evenly over the cut sides of the bread.
  5. If using, sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese on top of the buttered bread.
  6. Place the bread halves on a baking sheet, cut side up, and bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until the edges are golden and crispy.
  7. For an extra crispy finish, broil the bread for an additional 1-2 minutes, watching closely to prevent burning.
  8. Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, then slice and serve warm.
