Parmesan Cheese And Rosemary Bread Sticks

By lmeyer

Ingredients

• 1/2 c. grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 clove garlic-minced
• 1 tsp. chopped fresh rosemary leaves
• 1 (11 oz.) container refrigerated breadstick dough (recommended Pillsbury)
• Finely ground sea salt optional

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line 2 heavy large baking sheets with parchment paper. In a food processor, chop the Parmesan, rosemary and garlic together until coarsely chopped. Set the cheese mixture aside.

Separate the dough strips. Using a pizza cutter or a large sharp knife, cut each dough strip in half lengthwise to form thin strips. Working with dough strip at a time, coat each strip with the cheese mixture, pressing very gently. Twist each cheese covered dough strip and place onto prepared baking sheets.

Sprinkle with the salt. Bake until the breadsticks are golden brown, about 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer the warm bread sticks to a basket and serve.
