3 tablespoons butter
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried parsley
Salt and pepper, to taste
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Fresh parsley, for garnish

Directions

1. Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a medium baking dish and set aside.

2. Prepare the Filling

Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and sauté for about 1 minute, until fragrant.
