The most amazing and simple garlic confit recipe! It uses just a few ingredients, but packs a ton of flavor.
Peeled garlic cloves, extra-virgin olive oil/pure olive oil, black pepper, kosher salt, chili flakes, thyme, oregano, rosemary
Place garlic, oil, salt, pepper, chili flakes and any herbs you desire in an ovenproof saucepan or dish. Add oil until all the garlic is submerged.
Bake until the garlic cloves are tender, and golden. Transfer garlic cloves and oil and store in a container, and transfer right away to the fridge or freezer.
In a saucepan or deep skillet, place your peeled garlic cloves, and cover completely with olive oil. Season.
On low heat, cook and confit the garlic. This will take anywhere from 30-45 minutes depending on your desired doneness/color.
Use a slotted spoon to place your confit garlic to a jar, along with the garlic oil. Store in the fridge right away for up to a week, or up to 3 months in the freezer.
