HowTo: Make your own Garlic Butter

Looking to make your own homemade garlic bread or garlic butter for pan grilling shrimp, fish, or veggies?

Here’s a quick and simple recipe to get you cooking…  You are less than four minutes away from a delicious garlic spread… (sorry about the video quality- this was filmed a long time ago and really needs to be re-filmed in HD, and in focus 😉  Recipe below video…

Ingredients

  • – Unsalted Butter- one stick
  • – Crushed Oregano (dried)- 1 heaping tsp
  • – Extra Virgin Olive Oil- 2 tsp
  • – Fresh Garlic (pressed or crushed and diced)- 3-4 cloves
  • – Sea Salt and Pepper (to taste)  *- See note

Directions

In a mixing bowl combine butter, crushed oregano, olive oil, garlic, salt*, and pepper.  Mix well.

Transfer combined ingredients onto a piece of waxed paper or plastic wrap.  Roll into a log and place in refrigerator to firm up.

Your fresh garlic butter is ready to enjoy!  It’s that quick and simple!

*-If you will be using the butter to saute shrimp or veggies I suggest leaving the salt out of the butter.  The salt content can be better controlled by adding directly to the dish during or after cooking.  If using for garlic bread or as a spread add it while combining other ingredients.

Enjoy!
