Ingredients
  

1 large French baguette or Italian loaf

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

6 cloves garlic, minced (adjust for garlic preference)

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon dried basil

1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional for added spice)

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1/4 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it’s ready for the chips.

    Prepare the Bread: Cut the baguette or loaf into 1/2-inch thick slices. Lay the slices out in a single layer on a large baking sheet, ensuring they aren’t overlapping for even baking.

      Make the Garlic Butter: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, blend together the melted butter, minced garlic, oregano, basil, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Stir the mixture thoroughly so that all the ingredients are well combined and aromatic.

        Coat the Bread: Use a brush to slather the garlic butter mixture onto each slice of bread, ensuring each piece is completely coated for maximum flavor.

          Add Cheese: Evenly distribute the grated Parmesan cheese over the buttered slices. The cheese will melt and create a delightful crust during baking.

            Bake the Chips: Transfer the baking sheet to your preheated oven and bake for approximately 12-15 minutes. Watch closely for the slices to turn a lovely golden brown, indicating they are crisping up perfectly. Avoid over-baking to maintain that ideal crunch.

              Cool and Garnish: Once baked, take the chips out of the oven and allow them to cool for a few minutes on the baking sheet so they can firm up.

                Serve: Just before serving, sprinkle the chips with freshly chopped parsley for an extra pop of color and fresh flavor. These crispy garlic bliss chips are best enjoyed warm, either by themselves or paired with your favorite dips!
