High Voltage Garlic Bread
1 Long Loaf Italian (or French) Bread
4 – 6 Cloves Garlic, Squished
2 Tbsp Olive Oil
2 Tbsp Chopped Fresh Parsley
½ Tsp Paprika
2 Tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese
Preheat Oven To 400ºf.
In A Small Bowl, Combine The Garlic & Oil, Mashing Them Together Well.
In Another Bowl, Mix Together The Chopped Parsley, Paprika, & Parmesan Cheese.
Cut The Bread In Half Crosswise Then, As Evenly As You Possibly Can, Cut Each Half Horizontally In Half. This Will Give You 4 Longish Slabs Of Bread.
With A Pastry Brush, Or Clean Paintbrush, Brush The Garlic/oil Mixture Onto The Cut Surfaces Of The Bread, Using It All Up. Sprinkle, Likewise, With The Parsley Mixture.
Arrange The Pieces Of Bread On A Baking Sheet, Cut-sides-up, & Bake For 10 Minutes, Until Lightly & Heated All The Way Through.
Since The Baking Time Is Relatively Short, Pay Attention So That You Don’t Over-bake The Garlic Bread. Two Minutes Extra In The Oven, & It's, Um, Toast, Or Worse.
Cut Into Pieces & Serve.
