Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°.
- In a small-sized sauce pot, melt the butter, garlic, parsley, salt, and pepper. This should only take 2 to 3 minutes.
- Slice the bread in half lengthwise and place on a sheet tray. Do not line it with parchment paper. You can, however, use foil if you prefer.
- Evenly brush both cut sides of the bread with the garlic, butter, and parsley mixture until it is completely coated.
- Bake in the oven for 10-12 minutes or until it begins to harden up on top slightly.
- Remove the bread from the oven and immediately turn the broiler to high.
- Evenly sprinkle the cheese over the top of the bread, completely covering it. Be sure to cover the edges so they do not burn.
- Place the bread back in the oven on the middle rack under the broiler and broil for 2 to 4 minutes or until the cheese is completely melted and some brown spots start to form.
- Remove the cheesy bread, slice it, and garnish with optional chopped parsley.
Notes
- Make-Ahead: This is meant to be eaten as soon as it is done cooking. You can, however, keep it warm in the oven at very low temperatures (200° F) for up to 30 minutes before serving, but it may tend to dry out.
- How to Store: Cover and keep in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. This will not freeze well.
- How to Reheat: Wrap the desired amount in foil and bake in the oven at 350° for 6-8 minutes or until hot.
- Feel free to replace the butter with a 1/3 cup of olive oil.
- I always place everything in the oven on the middle rack.
