Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prep the Garlic

    Peel the garlic cloves, removing the outer skin. You can chop them finely or leave them whole based on your preference.

  2. 2

    Chop the Parsley

    Rinse the fresh parsley under cold water, pat dry, and chop coarsely.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Heat the Olive Oil

    In a large skillet, add the olive oil and heat over medium-low heat until it shimmers, but do not let it smoke.

  2. 4

    Add the Garlic

    Once the oil is heated, add the peeled garlic cloves to the skillet. Sauté for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until the garlic is golden brown and fragrant.

  3. 5

    Season the Mixture

    Sprinkle salt and black pepper over the sautéed garlic, and stir well to combine.

  4. 6

    Add Optional Ingredients

    If using, add lemon juice and red pepper flakes to the skillet. Stir to combine and cook for an additional minute.

  5. 7

    Finish with Parsley

    Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the chopped parsley. This adds freshness to the dish.
