In a mixing bowl, combine 2.5 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 packet of instant yeast, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and 1 teaspoon of salt.
Gradually add 1 cup of warm water and 2 tablespoons of olive oil to the dry ingredients. Mix until a dough begins to form.
Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 6-8 minutes, until it becomes smooth and elastic.
Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl, cover it, and let it rise in a warm area for about 1 hour, or until it doubles in size.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Once the dough has risen, punch it down and divide it into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a 10-inch rope and tie into a knot.
Place the knots on the prepared baking sheet, cover with a clean towel, and allow to rest for an additional 15 minutes.
While the knots are resting, finely mince 4 large garlic cloves and mix with 2 tablespoons of freshly chopped parsley.
Bake the knots for 12-15 minutes, or until they are golden brown.
Remove the knots from the oven, and immediately brush them with olive oil. Sprinkle the minced garlic and parsley mixture evenly over each knot.
Finish by sprinkling 0.5 teaspoons of sea salt over the garlic knots for added flavor. Serve warm.
