Ingredients:

Serving

12 slices crusty white bread , sliced on the diagonal (1/3 - 1/2 inch thick slices)
1/4 cup butter
1 1/2 tbsp fresh italian parsley, chopped
1 tsp fresh thyme leave, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced ,to taste
1/2 tsp lemon , zest of, chopped
1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes , to taste
4 anchovy fillets, drained and chopped
3/4-1 cup provolone cheese, grated

Directions:

Preheat oven to 425°F.
Melt the butter in a heavy skillet over medium heat.
Add the anchovies and stir until they dissolve, around 3 minutes.
Stir in the herbs, garlic, lemon zest and red pepper flakes.
Arrange the bread slices on a baking sheet.
Brush the tops of the bread slices with the butter mixture.
(If I'm feeling lazy I just dip one side of the bread slice in the butter mixture and place the bread back on the baking sheet butter side up).
Sprinkle the tops of the bread slices with the Provolone cheese.
Bake until the cheese melts and the bread is golden and toasty, around 7- 10 minutes.
