Pan Fried On The Grill Or In The Oven _ Garlic Bread Recipes

Steps:

• Arrange a rack in the center of oven and preheat to 450 degrees F.
• Melt the butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until the butter is golden and the garlic is very fragrant, about 3 minutes.
• Slice the bread in half lengthwise. Liberally brush the crust with the garlic butter. Turn the bread cut-side up. Slice each loaf crosswise at 2-inch intervals without cutting all the way through, making "pull-apart" garlic bread. Liberally brush the cut sides of the bread with more garlic butter, spreading any remaining garlic evenly over top. You should use all the garlic butter. Carefully transfer the bread to a rimmed baking sheet.
• Sprinkle the loaves with the Parmesan and a pinch of salt and bake until the edges of the bread are a deep golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Top with the parsley. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Brush the inside of a heavy pan with olive oil and place over medium-low heat.
• Cut the loaf in half lengthwise, then again crossways into 3 or 4 inch pieces.
• Rub the cut surfaces with the garlic and brush with oil.
• Arrange as many pieces as will fit in the pan, weighing them down with a bacon press.
• Cook about 5 minutes until underside of bread is browned.
• Turn bread and repeat cooking process for another 5 minutes.
• Repeat until all slices are browned.
• Keep warm in the oven on low heat.

Steps:

• Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Slice ciabatta in half lengthwise. Then cut each half into 1-inch slices. In batches as needed, grill the ciabatta slices, cut side down until they are golden and crisp, about 2 minutes. Working quickly, drizzle the toasted sides with extra-virgin olive oil. Rub the garlic cloves over the grilled bread, then rub the cut side of the tomatoes over the grilled bread. It's important to do this while the bread is still hot or warm, otherwise the garlic won't melt into the bread. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, and serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to high heat.
• Mix together butter, garlic, Parmesan cheese, and pepper in a bowl.
• Spread the butter mixture generously on the baguette slices.
• Place slices on the preheated grill and cook until butter is melted and bread is lightly brown, about 30 seconds.
• Sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately.
