Time 25m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 red bell pepper, diced
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon fine grind kosher salt
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
1 (8 ounce) wheel brie cheese
sliced French bread or water crackers

Steps:

Into a small skillet measure the olive oil and add the garlic. Warm the skillet over medium low heat for 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally. The garlic should be softened but should not brown. Add the bell pepper and continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes.
Remove skillet from heat. Stir in the lemon juice, mustard, black pepper, salt and parsley.
Place the brie on a rimmed baking sheet. (See my note in Instruction #7 about using a heatproof skillet.) Using a fork, poke holes all over the top surface of the brie. Allow the fork to go all the way to the bottom of the cheese but do not pierce the bottom rind.
Pile the red peppers with garlicky olive oil onto the top surface of the cheese. Use a spatula to scrape every last drip of flavored oil onto the cheese. Set aside for 15 minutes, allowing the garlic oil to drip through the holes you've made in the cheese. (You can marinate it in the refrigerator for longer, even overnight. If doing so, cover with plastic wrap before refrigerating).
If using BBQ: Preheat BBQ to 350°F and prepare for indirect grilling. Once BBQ is heated, place the cheese-pan on the grill, being sure that it is over indirect heat (i.e., that the heat is not directly below the pan). Put the cover of the BBQ down. If using oven: Preheat oven to 350°F Once oven is preheated put in the pan of cheese.
Bake/BBQ for 15 minutes. If the brie is bulging at the sides and soft to the touch on top, it's ready. If it's not soft and bulging, bake/BBQ for another 5-7 minutes but check on it every minute or so (you want to catch it at the bulging stage not at the oozing-all-over-the-pan stage).
It's nearly impossible to move the brie onto a serving plate once it's soft and gooey, therefore I used a 6" cast iron skillet and served directly from it. Place the pan of cheese on top of a heat-proof pot holder or trivet. Warn Guests: Pan is HOT. Serve with slices of French bread and/or water crackers. Red grapes would be a nice addition, too.

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

1 (8 oz.) wheel of brie
½ red bell pepper, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
2 Tbsp. olive oil
1 tsp. Dijon mustard
¼ tsp. black pepper
⅛ tsp. salt
2 Tbsp. chopped chives for garnish (optional)

Steps:

Place brie on a small rimmed baking sheet. Using a fork, poke holes all over the top surface of the brie. Allow the fork to go all the way to the bottom of the cheese but do not pierce the bottom rind.
In a medium bowl combine the bell pepper, garlic, olive oil, Dijon mustard, black pepper, and salt. Pile it on the top surface of the brie.
Cover brie with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight.
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Bake for 15 minutes. If the brie is bulging at the sides and soft to the touch on top, it's ready. If it's not soft and bulging, bake for another 5-7 minutes but check on it every minute or so (you want to catch it at the bulging stage not at the oozing-all-over-the-pan stage).
Sprinkle with chives, if using.
It's nearly impossible to move the brie onto a serving plate once it's soft and gooey. I simply put a pot holder on the table and place the pan of cheese on top (be prepared for the conversation to stop and for everyone to sigh deeply in anticipation). Warn everyone that the pan is hot (mine seems to cool off pretty quickly though). Ensure that everyone has a knife for spreading. Slash the bulging rind and watch the garlicky cheesiness melt out.

Tips:

Choose a ripe brie. A ripe brie will have a soft, slightly runny center. If the brie is too firm, it will not melt properly in the oven.
Use a sharp knife to score the brie. This will help the brie melt evenly and prevent it from cracking.
Spread the garlic and red pepper jelly evenly over the brie. This will ensure that every bite is flavorful.
Bake the brie until it is melted and bubbly. This will take about 15-20 minutes.
Serve the brie immediately with crackers, bread, or fruit.

Conclusion:

Baked brie with garlic and red pepper jelly is an easy and delicious appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. It is also a great way to use up leftover brie. With its creamy, melted center and flavorful topping, this baked brie is sure to be a hit with your guests.
