Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 large French bread loaf
- 8 tablespoons Butter
- 3 large Garlic cloves
- 2 large Roasted green chiles
- 1 cup Mayonnaise
- 1.5 cups Cheddar cheese
- 1.5 cups Monterey Jack cheese
- 3 stalks Green onion
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional)
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Slice the French bread loaf in half lengthwise and place both halves cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet.
In a small skillet, melt the butter over low heat. Mince the garlic cloves and add them to the melted butter. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until fragrant but not browned. Remove from heat and set aside.
Finely dice the roasted green chiles and green onion stalks. If using fresh parsley, chop it finely as well.
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened butter-garlic mixture, mayonnaise, diced green chiles, cheddar cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, green onion, salt, and black pepper. Mix until fully integrated.
Spread the cheesy chile mixture evenly over the cut sides of the bread halves, ensuring the entire surface is covered generously.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and slightly golden around the edges.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. Optional: garnish with fresh parsley for added color and flavor.
Slice into thick pieces and serve warm. Enjoy your cheesy chile bread as a snack, side dish, or party appetizer!
