Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

  4. Take each strip and tie it into a knot.
  5. In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, minced garlic, chopped parsley, salt, and pepper.
  6. Place the knots on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush each knot generously with the garlic butter mixture.
Baking
  1. Pop them in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.
  2. Once removed from the oven, give them another brush with the garlic butter and sprinkle with additional parsley, if desired.

Notes

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 5-7 minutes.
