Ingredients

  • 1/2 pound provolone, in 1 whole round slice
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon red chili flakes
  • Bread slices
  • Chimichurri, recipe follows

Directions

Heat grill to 400 degrees F.

Drizzle cheese with a touch of olive oil. Place cheese on the grill for 45 seconds. Flip the cheese and grill for another 45 seconds. Transfer cheese to a small round baking dish. Sprinkle with oregano and crushed red pepper. Serve immediately, using small knives to spread the cheese mixture onto bread slices. Drizzle Chimichurri sauce over.

Chimichurri:

4 cloves garlic

1 tablespoon aji molido (Argentine ground pepper), or ground sweet pepper

1/2 cup chopped Italian parsley leaves

1 teaspoon red chili flakes

Pinch coarse sea salt

1/4 cup malt vinegar, or white vinegar

1 cup canola/olive oil blend

Place garlic, aji molido, parsley, chili flakes, and salt in the bowl of a food processor and puree until well ground. With the machine running, add vinegar and slowly pour in oil; process until emulsified. Transfer to a deep jar. The sauce can be kept, covered, for up to 3 months in the refrigerator.

    In Italy, we also prepared 'Grilled Provolone'; also
    Mozzarella; but I prefer my bread grilled. Some people like
    to dip their sandwich in egg, then grill it.
    In Italy, we call these 'Provolone OR Mozzarella en Carrozza'.
    Here in America, Italian Grilled Cheese sandwiches. I like to
    have Marinara sauce OR Italian Green Sauce (Salsa Verde OR
    a Pesto sauce. Marinated Provolone OR Mozzarella is delicious
    served this way!
    These sandwiches can be prepared in a Panini press OR on a GF
    type of grill! Basil also can be used to season.
