Garlic Cheese Breadsticks Recipe: Savory Delights to Savor
Ingredients:
– 1 pound of pizza dough or homemade dough
– 1/2 cup of unsalted butter, melted
– 3 cloves of minced garlic
– 1 teaspoon of Italian seasoning
– 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder
– 1/4 teaspoon of salt
– 2 cups of shredded mozzarella cheese (or a blend of your favorite melting cheeses)
– 1/4 cup of grated parmesan cheese
– Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish (optional)
Directions:
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking.
2. Roll out the pizza dough on a lightly floured surface until it forms approximately a 1/2-inch thick rectangle. Transfer it to your prepared baking sheet.
3. In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and salt. Generously brush this savory mixture over the top of your dough.
4. Evenly sprinkle the shredded mozzarella cheese and parmesan over the buttered dough. Don’t hold back, this is where the cheesy goodness shines!
5. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the edges are a beautiful golden brown.
6. Allow them to cool slightly before cutting the dough into breadstick portions using a pizza cutter or sharp knife.
7. If you fancy garnishes, a light sprinkling of chopped parsley can add color and fresh flavor just before serving.
