Ingredients

• 1 loaf French bread (or similar loaf)
• 4 tablespoons Butter, softened
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 4 ounces Green chiles (roasted and chopped, canned or fresh)
• 1 cup Mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
• 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro or parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.

Step 2

Cut the French bread loaf in half lengthwise. Place the halves on the prepared baking sheet with the cut side facing up.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix the softened butter and minced garlic until well combined. Spread the garlic butter evenly over the cut sides of the bread.

Step 4

Evenly distribute the chopped green chiles over the buttered bread halves.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, combine the mozzarella, cheddar, and Parmesan cheeses. Sprinkle the cheese mixture generously over the green chiles, making sure to cover each piece of bread completely.

Step 6

Season the bread with salt and black pepper, ensuring the flavors are balanced.

Step 7

Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 12–15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and golden brown around the edges.

Step 8

Once baked, remove the bread from the oven and let it cool for 2–3 minutes. If desired, garnish with freshly chopped cilantro or parsley for added flavor and visual appeal.

Step 9

Slice the bread into serving-sized pieces and serve warm as a side dish, appetizer, or snack. Enjoy!
