Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 pieces Canned escargot
- 100 grams Unsalted butter
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 12 pieces Escargot shells (optional)
- 8 pieces Baguette slices (optional)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
If using canned escargot, drain and rinse them under cold water, then pat them dry with paper towels.
Finely mince the garlic cloves and parsley, then set them aside.
In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, minced garlic, minced parsley, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well incorporated to form a garlic-parsley butter.
If using escargot shells, place one snail into each shell and pack the opening with the garlic-parsley butter. Alternatively, use a small baking dish and arrange the snails in a single layer, spooning a dollop of butter over each snail.
Place the filled shells or baking dish onto a baking tray and bake for 10 minutes, or until the butter is bubbling and fragrant.
While the escargot is baking, lightly toast the baguette slices (if using) for serving.
Carefully remove the escargot from the oven and allow to cool slightly. Serve hot with toasted baguette slices for dipping in the buttery sauce.
