Garlic Bread with Parsley

Ingredients

* 5 garlic cloves
* 3/4 stick unsalted butter
* 1 cup packed parsley sprigs
* 1 (24-inch) baguette

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350°F.

With motor running, drop garlic cloves into food processor and run until garlic is finely chopped.

Cook garlic in butter with 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper in a small heavy saucepan over medium heat, stirring, until pale golden, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat.

Pulse parsley in food processor until finely chopped, then stir into butter.

Cut baguette crosswise at 1-inch intervals, not slicing all the way through. Put bread on a large sheet of foil, then spoon about 1 tsp butter into each cut. Wrap foil tightly around bread and bake until heated through, about 10 minutes.
