  • Über dieses Rezept:

    You can (and should) put this stuff on practically anything. It's insanely simple to whip up a nice garlic butter at home, and it's easy to tweak to your preference if you want to use different herbs or flavorings. Personally, we like fresh parsley and chives for color and flavor, and just a touch of lemon juice to add a little something extra. This butter makes a decadent, flavorful topper for just about any cut of beef, and we've added a few combined recipes in our recipe menu if you want to cook your favorite steak and your garlic butter at the same time. You'll also get a ton of servings with this recipe, so if you run out of steak, go ahead and throw a healthy dollop on your seafood or vegetables. Or just buy more steak.

    Zubereitungsmethode:

  • 1

    Cut Butter

    Dice your butter into small squares.

    If you've only got salted butter in your fridge, don't worry, we won't tell on you. We only recommend unsalted butter so that there's less risk of going overboard when you add salt later.

    Chop Parsley

    Cut off your parsley stems and finely chop the leaves.

    Parsley is one of the strongest herbs, so we chose it to add a powerful peppery flavor to our butter. While you can experiment with using different herbs to your taste, we recommend parsley because its leafy texture won't disturb the smoothness of your butter like some more needly herbs. Parsley also adds a pop of bright color, and it makes your butter healthier. That's what we tell ourselves, anyway.

    Slice Chives

    Thinly slice your chives.

    Chives give your butter a nice onion taste without overpowering the other flavors, and they work well with the parsley to make your butter more colorful. We also recommend chives over other onion varieties because they won't make the butter quite as chunky.

    Mince Garlic

    Peel and mince your garlic.

    Ah, garlic. An ingredient so delicious and versatile that it has its own butter. We wanted this recipe to be customizable, so if you're like us and are never satisfied with the suggested garlic amount in recipes, you can feel free to go nuts.

    Squeeze Lemon Juice

    Juice your lemon.

    Other garlic butters may include herbs and onions like ours, but lemon juice is our own special twist on the recipe (please pardon the pun). The acidity adds a contrast to the other flavors to give the butter more complexity, and the liquid element makes it easier to mix the ingredients together.
