Ingredients

2 pieces provolone cheese (about 1 1/2-pounds total)
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon chili flakes
5 to 6 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon freshly minced parsley leaves
Grey salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Prepare a charcoal or gas grill.

Rub the pieces of provolone all over with the olive oil and season with the rest of the ingredients. Let marinate refrigerated for 1 hour. Grill the cheese on the hot grill over moderately-high heat for about 2 minutes per side until grill marks appear and the cheese just begins to soften.

Transfer the cheese to a metal plate or baking dish on top of the grill. Cook until the cheese just barely starts to melt and begins to brown on the bottom, about 3 to 5 minutes.

Serve hot with crusty bread or grilled bread slices.

Versatile & a crowd pleaser
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Made this yesterday from memory and couldn't remember the exact marinade so I ended up using basil along with the rest of the... ingredients - it was fabulous. I also couldn't get any good quality provolone, so I did two batches - one with Asiago and one with aged white cheddar. Both were big hits. Can't wait to experiment with other cheeses too!Read more

Great dish!

This was so easy and a great hit at my annual BBQ. The key though is to get GOOD Provolone. Very nice and simple. I use... charcoal and this worked well for me!Read more

very good and easy
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This was very good and certainly easy if you already have the grill fired up. Just eat it right away or the cheese cools and... becomes solid again.Read more
