Servings: 4
Ingredients
- Escargots
- 1 can (approximately 12-18 snails, drained)
- Unsalted butter
- 4 tablespoons, softened
- Garlic
- 4 cloves, minced
- Fresh parsley
- 2 tablespoons, finely chopped
- Salt
- 1/2 teaspoon
- Black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon
- Baguette
- 1, sliced into 1/2-inch pieces
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Rinse the escargots under cold water to remove any dirt or debris, then drain well.
- In a small saucepan, melt the softened butter over low heat. Add the minced garlic and cook for 2-3 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to let it brown.
- Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the chopped parsley, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
- Place the escargots in a baking dish or individual escargot dishes. Pour the garlic butter mixture over them, ensuring each escargot is well-coated.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the escargots are heated through and the butter is bubbling.
- While the escargots are baking, arrange the baguette slices on a baking sheet. Toast in the oven for 5-7 minutes, or until golden and crispy.
- Serve the escargots hot, drizzled with any remaining garlic butter, alongside the toasted baguette slices for dipping.
