In a small pan, melt butter over low heat. Add minced garlic and cook for 1–2 minutes until fragrant (not browned). Stir in parsley and a pinch of salt. Set aside.3. Roll Out Flatbreads:
Divide rested dough into 6 pieces. Roll each piece into a ball, then flatten and roll into a 6–7 inch circle on a lightly floured surface.4. Cook Flatbreads:
Heat a skillet or non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Brush with a little olive oil. Cook each flatbread for about 1–2 minutes per side until golden brown spots appear and the bread puffs slightly.5. Finish with Garlic Butter:
