Grilled Garlic Bread 12 tablespoons (1 ½ sticks) salted butter, at room
temperature (180 ml) |
In a medium bowl combine room temperature butter and minced garlic. Add Parmesan cheese, chopped chives and season with salt and pepper. Mix well and set aside.
Using a serrated knife, cut the loaf of bread in half, like a book.
Sit the loaf on a large sheet of aluminium foil. Using a spatula, smear the butter mixture on both sides of each bread slice. Sprinkle with cheese. Wrap the bread tightly in the aluminium foil and let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes - allowing the garlic butter to sink into the bread.
Prepare the barbecue for indirect grilling. Heat one side of the barbecue to medium heat- 300°F/150°C. Oil the grill. Place the garlic bread on the side of the barbecue that is turned off. Let warm on the grill for 10 minutes.
Serve the garlic bread hot off the grill. The bread should be warm and the cheese melted.
Yield: Makes about 20 slices
