1
Prepare the Garlic Fennel Butter
In a medium bowl, combine the unsalted butter, minced garlic, chopped fennel, chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well blended.
2
Prepare the Escargots
If using canned escargots, drain and rinse them. If using fresh escargots, prepare them according to package instructions or your preferred method.
3
Assemble the Dish
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the escargots in individual escargot dishes or a baking dish. Spoon the garlic fennel butter over each escargot, ensuring they are well coated.
4
Add the Cheese
Sprinkle the grated Gruyère cheese generously over the escargots.
5
Bake
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for about 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
6
Toast the Bread
While the escargots are baking, toast the slices of French bread until golden brown.
7
Serve
Remove the escargots from the oven and serve immediately with the toast points for dipping into the garlic fennel butter.
