Cowboy Butter

Jeff Caldwell

This is a simple recipe for compound butter. It is close to the garlic bread recipe we saw on the Food Network.

Ingredients

  • 1 stick butter
  • Zest & juice of 1/2 lemon
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 tablespoon prepared horseradish
  • 1/2 tablespoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon chipotle chili powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 3 tablespoons finely diced green onion
  • 2 tablespoons chopped parsley
  • 2 tablespoons finely diced red onion

Directions

  1. Put all ingredients in a small pot over low heat, and melt until combined.

Notes

We used this butter on top of chicken legs and thighs. We also used it on a pizza crust to make cheesy garlic bread.

This recipe came from Sam the Cooking Guy’s YouTube Channel

After preparing the butter, we kept it warm and brushed in on the chicken and pizza, bread. You can also chill it and roll it up to use later.
