Description
This savory garlic butter is perfect for spreading or dipping, combining rich flavors with buttery goodness.
Ingredients
Scale
- ½ cup butter (room temperature)
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 tablespoon dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon dried chives
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes (more if desired)
- ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon cracked pepper
Instructions
- Add the butter to a small bowl and use a microplate grater to grate the garlic over the butter.
- Add the remaining ingredients to the butter and use a fork to stir well to combine.
- To use as a softened butter, serve immediately. To slice and serve, scoop the butter onto a piece of plastic wrap and roll up to form a log, shaping the butter in the wrap and sealing the ends as you go. Refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours. Slice and use as desired.
- To use this as a dip, microwave the butter for 15-30 seconds, until melted, and eat warm as a dip or for drizzling over roasted veggies.
- Store in the fridge for up to 1 week.
Notes
- This butter is versatile and can be used for a variety of applications, from spreading on bread to drizzling over vegetables.
- Adjust the amount of red pepper flakes based on your heat preference.
