I make a butter compound with the garlic and parsley so that the butter is much easier to spread and the garlic more evenly mixed.

Ingredients

  • 1 loaf ciabatta bread, sliced in half lengthwise
  • 8 tablespoons salted butter, at room temperature
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon chopped flat-leaf parsley
  • 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment add the butter, garlic and parsley and mix on medium-low speed until thoroughly combined and soft.
  • Preheat oven to 375ºF (190ºC). Lay both halves of the bread on an aluminum-foil lined baking sheet cut-side up.
  • Use a knife to spread the butter evenly over both sides of the bread then top with the mozzarella and Parmesan.
  • Bake until the cheese is melted and the top is lightly browned, about 12 to 15 minutes.
  • Cut into 2” slices and serve immediately.
