Step 1
Cut the 8 oz provolone into 4 thick slices, about 1 inch each. Brush both sides with the 1 tbsp olive oil.
Step 2
Preheat a charcoal grill or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until hot, about 5 minutes.
Step 3
Grill the cheese slices for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown grill marks appear and the edges start to melt.
Step 4
Transfer to a plate, sprinkle with the 1 tsp oregano, 2 tbsp chopped parsley, and 0.5 tsp black pepper. Serve immediately with crusty bread or wooden skewers for picking up.
Step 5
Optional: add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a squeeze of lemon before serving if you like.
