Description

Warm cheese and garlic, what more can I say!

Ingredients

  • ½ teaspoons Olive Oil
  • 2 cloves Garlic (or More If You Love It), Sliced Thin
  • ¾ cups Diced Provolone Cheese
  • ½ cups Diced Fontina Cheese
  • 1 pinch Each Of Kosher Salt And Pepper
  • Slices Of French Bread, For Serving

Preparation

Preheat your oven to 450 F.

Prepare your 6-inch cast iron pan (or oven safe pan) by spreading a tiny bit of olive oil over the bottom of it with your fingertips. Use just enough to make it shine, about 1/2 teaspoon. Scatter your garlic and cheeses into your pan. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and bake for 15 minutes or until melted. You can also broil it for a bit if your want to speed things up or if you would like some lovely browned cheese in spots.

Once cheese is completely melted, remove pan from the oven and serve right away. If your cheese hardens before you finish wolfing it down, err I mean enjoying it, just pop it back in the oven for a few minutes and it will melt right up!

*Note: Sometimes I sprinkle truffle salt over the top when I season the cheese. A sometimes I add a tablespoon of white wine to the pan prior to adding the cheese to change it up a bit.

Enjoy!
