Prep the Cheese:
Place your 1-inch thick slab of provolone cheese on a clean kitchen bench.
Press fresh oregano leaves evenly onto the top surface of the cheese.
Evenly scatter chili flakes over the cheese, pressing down gently to ensure they adhere to the surface.
Heat the Skillet:
Position a 12-14 cm cast iron skillet on the stove and turn the flame to medium-high. Allow the skillet to heat up.
Sear the Cheese:
Carefully place the cheese in the skillet with the unseasoned side facing down.
Cook the cheese for about 2-3 minutes, or until the bottom turns a beautiful golden brown.
Flip and Melt:
Using a spatula, gently flip the cheese to sear the seasoned side.
Allow the cheese to cook until it becomes soft, melty, and fills the contours of the skillet.
Garnishing and Serving:
For an added burst of flavor, sprinkle some additional oregano leaves and chili flakes over the melted cheese.
Serve hot, straight from the skillet. Use toasted sourdough bread slices to dunk into the molten cheese and enjoy!
