Do you love garlic? Garlic lovers know that you can never add too much garlic to anything, be it garlic fried rice or the garlic sauce that many of us love to squeeze into our shawarma or dip fries into.
A delicious pairing to garlic is butter. If you can imagine how delicious garlic bread is when it’s doused in a garlicky butter sauce, then you know how sinfully good that can be. Garlic butter for chicken is a delicious combo!
