1
Prepare the Garlic
Separate the cloves from the garlic bulbs, then peel each clove. You can use the flat side of a knife to gently crush each clove, which will help in peeling.
2
Chop the Garlic
Once peeled, finely chop the garlic cloves according to your preference. If you prefer a stronger flavor, chop them into smaller pieces.

3
Heat the Olive Oil
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat until it shimmers. Make sure not to let it smoke.
4
Sauté the Garlic
Add the chopped garlic to the skillet. Sauté for about 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently until the garlic is fragrant and lightly golden. Be careful not to burn it.
5
Season the Mixture
Sprinkle in the salt and black pepper, adjusting to taste. If using, add the fresh parsley and lemon juice to enhance flavor.
