Ingredients

Servings
  • cup olive oil
  • 4 cups French bread at least a day old, cubed
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • ¼ cup parsley chopped, fresh leaves
  • salt Kosher salt and freshly ground
  • black pepper Kosher salt and freshly ground

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400F, with rack on upper middle position. Line a large baking sheet with foil. Place cubed French bread on baking sheet in a single layer.
  2. In a heavy skillet over medium heat, add oil and heat until it's hot. Add minced garlic and stir until lightly browned. Remove from heat and strain out the garlic, keeping just the oil.
  3. Stir parsley, a sprinkle of kosher salt, and a few dashes of freshly ground black pepper into the hot oil. Stir to combine. Gently and slowly pour oil mixture onto the cubed bread on baking sheet, as evenly as possible. Toss gently until all the bread cubes are coated with oil mixture.
  4. Rearrange bread cubes in a single layer and bake about 15 minutes, or until croutons are crispy and golden brown. Add more salt and pepper to taste, if needed.
