Ingredients
Instructions
Preheat Your Oven's Broiler
Preheat your oven's broiler (grill) to high, or get your barbecue grill nice and hot. Place a small cast-iron skillet or a terracotta dish on the heat to get it very hot.
Cook For About 3-5 Minutes On The First Side
Lightly oil the surface of the provolone cheese. Place the cheese round into the preheated skillet. Cook for about 3-5 minutes on the first side, until it starts to bubble and forms a beautiful golden-brown crust.
Carefully Flip The Cheese
Sprinkle the top with the minced garlic, dried oregano, red chili flakes, and a crack of black pepper. Drizzle with olive oil.
Return To The Heat
Return to the heat and cook for another 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese is gloriously melted and bubbling, and the garlic is fragrant.
Serve Immediately In The Skillet
Serve immediately in the skillet, hot and gooey, with plenty of crusty bread for dipping and scooping up every last cheesy bite.
