Ingredients

1/4 cup butter, softened
2 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian (flat-leaf) parsley
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1/4 cup chopped fresh chives
1 can (11 oz) Pillsbury™ refrigerated crusty French loaf
1 tablespoon Crisco® Light Olive Oil
1 1/2 lb extra-lean (at least 90%) ground beef
1/2 cup pickled jalapeño chiles, drained, chopped and 2 tablespoons liquid reserved
