Garlic bread is a popular side dish made from sliced bread, typically baguette or Italian loaf, that has been seasoned with garlic and butter before being baked or grilled. It is a staple in Italian cuisine but has now become a beloved addition to meals all over the world.
Slice the bread diagonally into thick pieces—perfect for achieving that golden crisp.
In a bowl, mix softened butter, minced garlic, finely chopped cilantro, and a dash of salt and pepper. Stir thoroughly until everything is well blended.
Generously spread the garlic butter on both sides of each bread slice, ensuring full, even coverage.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Place the buttered bread on the pan, cooking each side for 1–2 minutes until evenly browned. Keep an eye on it to avoid burning.
That’s it! Crisp, golden garlic bread made on the stovetop in no time. Enjoy!
