INGREDIENTS
1 loaf of sourdough bread
1 cup fresh Mozzarella cheese, grated
(for the garlic butter)
1 stick unsalted butter, softened
2 garlic cloves, minced
¾ tsp. salt
1 Tbsp. parsley, fresh/chopped fine
METHOD
Preheat oven to 350F. In microwavable bowl, combine butter, garlic and salt, melt. Stir in the parsley, oregano and salt. Cut 1” diamonds diagonally on the bread, do not cut all the way through! Use a fork to pry open each slice and drizzle in a teaspoon of butter mixture and a bit of cheese. Brush remaining butter mixture over top of crust. Wrap bread in foil, bake for 15 minutes or until most of cheese has melted. Unwrap, and then bake for 5-7 more minutes until crusty. Sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately!
