Roasted Garlic Bread Olive And Cheese Skewers Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Slice the tops off of garlic heads so the tip of each clove is exposed. Place garlic on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil. Bake until garlic is soft, about 30 minutes.
• Set the oven to broil. Slice the loaf of bread in half horizontally, and place cut-side up on a baking sheet.
• Squeeze the cloves of garlic from their skins into a medium bowl. Stir in the butter, parsley, and Parmesan cheese until well blended. Spread onto the cut sides of the bread.
• Broil bread until toasted, about 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Put the garlic cloves on a square of heavy foil, drizzle with the olive oil and sprinkle on some salt and pepper. Wrap it up and bake until the garlic is golden, nutty and mushy, about 1 hour. Let cool. Lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F.
• Mix the garlic together with the 4 cheeses, chives, crushed red pepper flakes and some black pepper in a bowl.
• Cut the bread in strips in one direction, being careful not to cut all the way through the loaf. Rotate the bread 90 degrees and cut in the other direction. Stuff the cheese mixture in between the rows. Drizzle the melted butter all over the top.
• Wrap in foil and bake for 25 minutes. Open up the foil and bake until the cheese is hot and bubbly, another 10 minutes. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Cut off the top third of the head of garlic, exposing the tops of the garlic cloves. Put the garlic on a piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of the oil. Sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper and add the thyme sprigs. Wrap tightly with foil and roast until the cloves are golden brown and very soft, about 45 minutes.
• Unwrap the garlic and let stand until cool enough to handle. Pour any garlic-flavored oil from the foil pouch into a small bowl; squeeze the roasted cloves into the same bowl, discarding the papery shells. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, the chopped thyme and an additional 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper and mash with a fork until smooth.
• Lay the bottom half of the bread on a piece of aluminum foil that is long enough to wrap the bread. Spread on half of the roasted garlic mixture and top with half of the Parmesan. Repeat with the remaining bread, garlic mixture and Parmesan. Press the halves together so the fillings are on the inside and wrap with the foil.
• Bake until the bread is toasted and the cheese is melted, about 15 minutes. Separate the halves, sprinkle with chopped parsley and cut into 6 pieces.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Cut top from each head of garlic, exposing the cloves. Place heads of garlic (cut side up), on a piece of heavy duty aluminum foil. Pour olive oil over them, and top with thyme springs. Season with salt and pepper. Wrap the foil tightly. Place in a small ovenproof pan, and bake until the cloves begin to pop out, about 1 hour. Remove from the oven and cool.
• To remove the cloves, open the foil and squeeze the lower part of the head of garlic. In a small bowl, mash the cloves to form a paste. (At this point the paste can be used or stored in the refrigerator or freezer.)
• Add butter and chopped thyme to the bowl, stirring to combine. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Toast both sides of the bread, using a hot grill, grill pan, or broiler. Spread the roasted garlic butter paste onto the toasted bread. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F.
• Place the garlic cloves on a square of heavy foil, drizzle the olive oil over them, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Wrap it up into a parcel and roast for 1 hour or until the garlic is golden, nutty, and soft. Set it aside to cool and reduce the oven temperature to 350°F. (You can roast the garlic up to a couple of days ahead of time and keep it in a small jar of oil in the fridge. Roast a bunch of cloves! You never know when you'll need 'em.)
• In a bowl, combine the cheeses, roasted garlic, chives, red pepper flakes, and some black pepper. Stir to mix everything together, smushing the garlic cloves so that little bits are distributed throughout the cheese. (You can get in there and use your fingers if you'd rather!)
• Cut the bread in 1 1/2-inch-wide strips in one direction, taking care not to cut all the way through the loaf. Rotate the bread 90 degrees and cut the bread crosswise again. Move slowly and use caution! A serrated knife helps immensely. Ta-da!
• Set the bread on a large piece of foil and stuff the cheese mixture in between the rows and keep going until that bread is so stuffed with cheese, it can't see straight! Drizzle the melted butter evenly all over the surface of the bread. Wrap the bread in foil and bake for 25 minutes. Open up the foil and bake it for another 10 minutes.
• Carefully unwrap the bread and dig right in!
• Change things up!
• Make a pizza version: Add chopped pepperoni, diced green bell pepper, and spoonfuls of marinara sauce.
• How about a French onion version? Diced caramelized onions, Gruyère cheese, and chopped chives. Drizzle on beef broth instead of butter. Yum!
• My friend Meseidy has made a Buffalo chicken version: Add mozzarella and a bunch of shredded chicken simmered in Louisiana hot sauce. Barbecue chicken would also be dreamy.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Roughly chop both the black olives and pimiento-stuffed green olives. Slice the green onions into thin pieces.
• Combine the butter, mayonnaise, cheese, olives and green onions in a mixing bowl. Stir together until thoroughly combined.
• Spread the mixture onto the French bread. Bake until the cheese is melted and browning, 20 to 25 minutes.

Steps:

• Start off by peeling your garlic and adding your garlic along with your olive oil, and chili flakes to a heated skillet, you will want to cook on a low heat for about 20 minutes.
• drain your olives and cut into halves, add to bowl.
• cut your onions into small pieces add to olives.
• add your shredded cheese, mayo, and half of your Parmesan cheese stir well.
• on your french bread you will want to spread with a brush your garlic oil mixture, evenly & lightly.
• Now add you olive and cheese mixture and bake @ 350 for 20-25 minutes till golden brown.
• Top your bread with the last of your Parmesan cheese.

Steps:

• Place a grilling rack over the barbecue, about 4 to 6 inches from the heat.
• Put the 2 tablespoons of oil from the sun dried tomatoes in a large bowl.
• Pat the tomato halves dry with a paper towel and cut into quarters, set aside.
• Stir the olive oil, garlic and salt into the tomato oil.
• Toss the bread cubes into the oil mixture until they are well-coated.
• Thread bread, cheese and tomato quarters, alternately on skewers.
• Grill over coals for about 5 minutes or just until the cheese begins to melt and the bread is toasted.
• Serve immediately.
