Directions

Set your oven rack about 6 inches from the broiler and preheat the broiler. Slice the Italian bread into ten 1-inch slices.
In a small bowl, mix together softened butter, crushed garlic, olive oil, oregano, salt, and pepper until well combined.
Arrange the bread slices on a baking sheet, butter-side up.
Place under the broiler for 3 minutes, or until lightly golden. Keep an eye on them — they can brown quickly!
Sprinkle mozzarella over the toasted slices and broil for another 2 minutes, until the cheese melts and bubbles.
Serve warm with your favorite pasta or soup. Enjoy that garlicky, cheesy, buttery perfection!

Recipe Note

Chef Tips

Use Fresh Garlic: Freshly minced garlic offers the best flavor. Avoid jarred garlic if possible.
For Extra Crisp: Brush bread with a touch of olive oil before adding the butter mixture.
Cheesy Upgrade: Use a mix of mozzarella and Parmesan for a restaurant-style cheesy garlic bread.
Herb Lovers: Add parsley, basil, or rosemary for a fresh, aromatic touch.

Serving Suggestions
Pair with spaghetti, lasagna, or creamy Alfredo pasta.

Serve alongside soups like tomato basil or minestrone.
Cut into smaller pieces for party appetizers or dipping in marinara sauce.
Turn leftovers into garlic bread pizza by adding marinara and toppings before reheating.

Storage & Reheating

Store: Keep leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or refrigerate for up to 4 days.
Freeze: Wrap slices in foil and freeze for up to 3 months.
Reheat: Warm in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5–7 minutes, or until hot and crisp. Avoid microwaving — it can make the bread soggy.
