Escargot Ingredients

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat the Oven

    Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  2. 2

    Prepare the Garlic Butter

    In a mixing bowl, combine softened butter, minced garlic, finely chopped parsley, minced shallots, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are fully incorporated.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Snails

    If using canned escargot, rinse them under cold water. If using fresh snails, ensure they are cleaned and purged.

  4. 4

    Fill the Shells

    Place an escargot in each shell (or a small dish) and fill each with the garlic butter mixture. Sprinkle bread crumbs over the top of each snail.

  5. 5

    Bake the Escargot

    Arrange the filled shells on a baking dish and bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the butter is bubbling and the tops are golden brown.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Serve hot with crusty bread for dipping.
