A silky, aromatic butter infused with the pungent warmth of garlic, melting effortlessly over grilled steaks, roasted vegetables, or crusty bread.
Ingredients
Scale:
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, softened
6 cloves fresh garlic, minced
1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine the softened unsalted butter and minced garlic. Use a fork or a spatula to mix them thoroughly until the garlic is evenly distributed.
Add the finely chopped parsley, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Stir until all ingredients are well combined.
Transfer the garlic butter mixture onto a piece of plastic wrap. Shape it into a log, twisting the ends to seal.
Refrigerate the garlic butter for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.
Once set, slice the garlic butter as needed. Use it to enhance your favorite dishes or simply spread over warm bread.
