Ingredients
- ½ cup butter softened at room temperature (about 1.5 hours)
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
Instructions
- In a medium bowl cream the butter with a fork until smooth.
- Add minced garlic and herbs and stir until just mixed.
- Tear off a 12-inch long piece of parchment paper and place garlic butter in the middle of it. Shape the butter into what resembles a long log.
- Pull the parchment paper over the herb butter and begin to roll it, reinforcing the log shape as you go. Once completely rolled up, twist the ends until tight.
- Refrigerate compound butter for at least 2 - 3 hours before serving. Serve with steak, chicken, shrimp, vegetables, or as a spread on bread. Enjoy!
Notes
- Make sure that your herbs are dry before mixing in with the butter.
- Don't be tempted to use a food processor to chop the herbs as they'll get too mushy.
- Have fun experimenting with other flavors! Black pepper and other fresh herbs like dill or oregano work great!
