Whether you're dressing up grilled veggies, finishing a steak, or simply spreading it on warm bread, this garlic and thyme compound butter adds rich, herbaceous flavor to just about anything. With only a few ingredients and a couple minutes of prep, it's an easy way to elevate everyday dishes with a fresh-from-the-garden touch!
Ingredients
- 1 handful fresh thyme
- 4 fresh garlic cloves, grated
- 1 cup Kerrygold salted butter
- Salt to taste
Directions
Step 1
Allow butter to adjust to room temperature in a mixing bowl, ideally one with a whisk attachment. Whip for about 10 minutes on a medium-high speed until fluffy.
Step 2
While the butter is whipping up, finely chop the thyme leaves and grate the garlic cloves.
Step 3
Once the butter is whipped, change the mixer speed to low and add the thyme and garlic slowly. Use a spatula to wipe down the sides as you go until everything is incorporated.
Step 4
Lay out about 18 inches in length of parchment paper or wax paper. Use a spatula to get all the buttery goodness on the parchment paper in a long shape.
Step 5
Cover with parchment, roll and twist each end like a candy wrapper. Store in the fridge and add to steaks, crusty bread, and sautéed vegetables.
