You can make this on the grill, in a skillet, or on a baking pan in the oven. We make it all three ways... and it is so good! By grilling it... you get a bit of the smokey flavor... By doing it in the oven... you get some darn good garlic bread... By doing it in a skillet... you get a little more control over the color, doneness and flavor.... Soooooo good!!!

How To Make pan fried, on the grill or in the oven _ garlic bread !

  • 1
    Slice the bread into 1/2 inch to 1 inch thick slices (I cut the slices on a slight angle).
  • 2
    Melt the butter in a small sauce pan with olive oil.
  • 3
    Either dip both sides of bread quickly in the butter mixture, or brush the mixture on both sides of the bread.
  • 4
    Place the buttered bread into a medium - hot skillet. Sprinkle lightly with garlic powder (Never use garlic salt) (if you want a little salt, sprinkle a little on... but not needed). When the bread is browned a bit, flip it over and sprinkle the browned side with garlic powder. Flip over again for a few seconds and remove from heat.

    *** When making this for the oven, only butter one side of the bread and only sprinkle one side. *** You can add shredded parmesan and mozzarella cheeses to any version of this... but oven version is best for cheese.
