Who this list is for

This Argentine provoleta appetizer recipe is for home cooks planning a grilled dinner for six. If you want to serve an authentic, shareable starter that’s both simple and impressive, use this list. It’s best for those with access to a skillet or grill and who appreciate bold flavors from fresh herbs and cheese.

How to use this list

Begin by sourcing a 12-ounce provolone cheese round that’s suitable for skillet or grill use. Gather fresh parsley, fresh oregano, garlic cloves, red wine vinegar, extra-virgin olive oil, crushed red pepper flakes, dried oregano, kosher salt, and a large crusty baguette. Prepare the chimichurri first by finely chopping the herbs and mixing with the oil, vinegar, garlic, and seasonings. Slice the baguette before heating the cheese, so everything is ready to serve hot.

Don’t substitute shredded provolone for the cheese round; it won’t hold together on the grill or skillet. Avoid dried herbs in place of fresh for the chimichurri—fresh parsley and oregano make a noticeable difference. Using regular olive oil instead of extra-virgin will dull the chimichurri’s flavor. Skip adding extra salt, as the cheese is already salty.

What is on this list

You’ll find provolone cheese round, fresh parsley, fresh oregano, garlic cloves, red wine vinegar, extra-virgin olive oil, crushed red pepper flakes, dried oregano, kosher salt, and a crusty baguette. Cross off any herbs or pantry staples you already have. Make sure the cheese round fits your skillet or grill pan.

When you are done

Serve the provoleta immediately while the cheese is bubbling and golden. Spoon chimichurri over the top and use the sliced baguette for dipping. Leftovers don’t keep well, so plan to finish it in one sitting. Rinse your skillet promptly to prevent cheese from sticking.
