Garlic Bread

1 loaf French bread
1/2 cup salted butter, softened
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp dried basil
1 tsp dried oregano
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper


1.  Slice the bread in half lengthwise and place each half on a baking sheet.

2.  In a small bowl, mix together the butter, olive oil, basil, oregano, Parmesan, minced garlic, salt and pepper.  Mix it well.

3.  Spread the butter in a generous, even layer on each half of the French bread.

4.  Put the baking sheet underneath the broiler in the oven.  Broil until it just starts to brown.  Watch it closely because how fast it cooks is dependent on how hot your broiler is and how close your rack is to the heating element.  It shouldn't take more than 5 minutes.
