Equipment

  • baking sheet
  • Mixing bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 1 French bread loaf typical grocery store size
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter very soft
  • 1-2 tablespoons crushed Calabrian chilies use 1 for more mild
  • 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
  • 5-6 garlic cloves minced OR 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 425℉. Combine butter, crushed Calabrian chili peppers, salt, garlic, and parsley in a bowl and mix thoroughly.
  • Slice a loaf of French bread in half length-wise. Slather the butter mixture evenly over the cut sides of the French bread, making sure to cover the surface. Place the bread halves face-up on a baking sheet and bake for 9-11 minutes, or until golden and crispy. Check on the bread around the 7 minute mark to gauge how it's browning. Slice and enjoy hot!
  • Feel free to pop it under the broiler for a minute or two to enhance browning.

Notes

  • If you need to use salted butter, just omit the sea salt from the butter mixture.
