Step 1

1. Preheat grill to medium high. Combine olive oil, oregano, red pepper flakes and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. Brush the cut sides of the baguette with some of the flavored oil. Grill cut-side down until toasted. About 4 minutes.

2. Rub the grilled sides of the baguette with the garlic. Top with tomato slices, season with salt and cover with the provolone. Grill, covered, until the cheese melts, 3-5 minutes. Drizzle with remaining flavored oil and season with salt. Cut into pieces.
