- 4 cloves Fresh garlic, minced
- 2 teaspoons Red chili flakes
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
Instructions
In a medium-sized bowl, add the softened unsalted butter.
Mix in the minced garlic, red chili flakes, smoked paprika, and salt. Stir well to evenly combine the spices.
Add the finely chopped parsley and lemon zest to the butter mixture. Use a spatula to thoroughly incorporate all ingredients.
Place a sheet of parchment paper or plastic wrap on a flat surface. Scoop the butter mixture onto the center of the paper.
Shape the butter into a log by rolling the parchment paper or plastic wrap tightly around it. Twist the ends to seal.
