- 1 lb Refrigerated pizza dough
- 6 tbsp Unsalted butter
- 4 cloves Garlic
- 1/4 cup Fresh parsley
- 1 tbsp Fresh oregano
- 1/2 tsp Red pepper flakes
- 1/2 tsp Sea salt
- 1/4 tsp Black pepper
- 1 whole lemon Lemon zest
- 1/4 cup Grated Parmesan cheese
How to make Herbed Lemon-Parmesan Garlic Knots
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a large baking sheet, or line with parchment paper.
- On a lightly floured surface, unroll the 1 lb refrigerated pizza dough. Gently stretch or roll it into a rectangle approximately 12x10 inches.
- Using a pizza cutter or sharp knife, cut the dough into 1-inch wide strips along the longer side, yielding about 10-12 strips.
- Take each dough strip and tie it into a loose knot. It doesn't need to be perfect; a simple overhand knot will suffice. Place the formed knots onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving about 1 inch between each knot.
- Bake the garlic knots for 15-18 minutes, or until they are puffed, golden brown, and cooked through. While they bake, prepare the garlic butter sauce.
- In a small saucepan, melt 6 tablespoons of unsalted butter over medium-low heat. Add the 4 minced garlic cloves and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant but not browned.
- Remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley, 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh oregano, 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (if using), 1/2 teaspoon sea salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and the zest of 1 lemon.
- Once the knots are out of the oven, immediately transfer them to a large heatproof bowl. Pour the prepared herbed lemon-garlic butter sauce over the hot knots.
- Toss the knots gently with tongs or a spoon until they are thoroughly coated in the fragrant butter sauce.
- Add 1/4 cup of grated Parmesan cheese to the bowl and toss again to ensure the cheese adheres to the buttery knots. Serve warm with additional Parmesan cheese on the side, if desired.
