Ingredients

  • 2 ½ Tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 ½ cups sliced cremini mushrooms
  • ½ cup sliced sun dried tomatoes not packed in oil
  • 1- 8 oz. container fresh mozzarella packed in water
  • 3 Tbsp. dry sherry
  • 2 Tbsp. chopped fresh rosemary
  • ¼ - ½ tsp. dried red chili flakes
  • salt and pepper
  • 1 baguette slice into ½ inch slices
  • extra olive oil for brushing the baguette.

Instructions

  • Turn the grill on to medium high. (If grilling on charcoal spread coals out until you can hold hand over fire for 5 - 7 seconds). 
  • While grill is heating, remove mozzarella from water and dry with paper towels, pressing as much water out as you can. Cut mozzarella into slices about ¼ inch thick and then tear slices into smaller pieces. Set aside.
  • Slice baguette and brush with olive oil. Set aside.
  • Add olive oil to a cast iron skillet. Place skillet on grill. When olive oil is shimmering (but not smoking - if starting to smoke, move skillet to a cooler part of the grill) add the mushrooms. Let cook for about 2 minutes or until mushrooms are a deep golden brown. Flip mushrooms over and cook until golden brown.
  • Pull skillet off fire and add sherry - it is going to bubble and hiss! Cook until sherry has evaporated.
  • Add sun dried tomatoes and rosemary and sprinkle liberally with salt., Layer the mozzarella on top. Move skillet back over the heat and cook until cheese melts and water evaporates.
  • Move dip to cooler part of the grill and add baguette slices to grill. Grill baguette slices for 2 - 3 minutes per side until golden and slightly charred at the edges.
  • Serve dip in the skillet with the grilled baguette slices.
