Slice the French baguette into 1-inch thick slices. Set aside.
Finely mince the garlic cloves. Chop the fresh parsley and set both aside.
In a small bowl, mix the softened unsalted butter, minced garlic, parsley, and salt until well combined.
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the pan to prevent sticking.
Spread a generous layer of the garlic butter mixture on one side of each bread slice.
Place the bread slices, buttered side down, onto the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the buttered side is golden brown and crispy.
While the first side is cooking, spread a thin layer of the garlic butter mixture on the top side of the bread slices.
Flip the slices and cook the other side for an additional 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
Remove the garlic bread from the skillet and serve warm.
