Ingredients
- 1 lb Provolone cheese
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 1 tsp Oregano
- 1/2 tsp Red pepper flakes
- 8 slices Crusty bread
Steps
- Heat a small cast-iron skillet until smoking — provoleta goes from creamy to burnt in under a minute, so the pan must be ready.
- Sear the slab of provolone 3–4 minutes until the bottom is deeply golden and crisp.
- Flip once, shower with oregano and pepper flakes, and cook 2 minutes more until molten.
- Drizzle with olive oil and serve immediately in the pan with crusty bread; provoleta waits for no one.
- Have the bread ready before the cheese hits the pan — from skillet to table should take 30 seconds.
