Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz Goat cheese
- 0.5 cup Olive oil
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1 tbsp Fresh thyme leaves
- 1 tsp Fresh rosemary, finely chopped
- 0.5 tsp Crushed red pepper flakes
- 2 cloves Garlic, finely minced
- 1 tsp Lemon zest
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper, freshly ground
- 0.25 tsp Kosher salt
- 1 package Crackers or crusty bread, for serving
Instructions
Place the goat cheese in a serving dish or shallow bowl. If it's a solid log shape, gently flatten or crumble it slightly to create a more spreadable texture.
In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, parsley, thyme, rosemary, crushed red pepper flakes, garlic, lemon zest, black pepper, and salt. Stir well to evenly distribute the herbs and spices.
Pour the flavored olive oil mixture over the goat cheese, making sure the cheese is evenly coated with the marinade. Allow the dip to sit at room temperature for at least 15 minutes to let the flavors meld together.
Serve the marinated goat cheese spread with crackers or slices of crusty bread. You can drizzle any remaining marinade over the bread for extra flavor.
