Skillet Garlic Bread

Ingredients:

• 1 loaf French bread, cut in half lengthwise
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• Salt and pepper, to taste

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Brush the cut sides of the bread with olive oil.
3. In a small bowl, mix together the garlic, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper. Sprinkle evenly over the oiled bread.
4. Place the bread halves on a baking sheet and bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the bread is golden brown.
5. Serve warm.

Notes:

• Use a cast-iron skillet for baking the bread if you prefer a crispier crust.
• For extra flavor, add chopped fresh herbs to the garlic and cheese mixture.
