Burning Bridges Like Matchsticks

I've been keeping that skillet hot and greasy as of late, not so much due to Woody's advice as my own apathy. When I don't feel like cooking, I end up frying things. There's been lots and lots of frying recently. And here's a dish that hops from the skillet to your plate real quick-like. You ought to make it. Right away, if possible.

2 onions, sliced
2 red peppers, sliced
4 cloves of garlic, minced
1 hot pepper, ground up
oregano
bread
cheese (I use smoked string cheese because it is so unbelievably cheap)

Caramelize the onions. Stir in some oregano. Add the garlic and peppers and cook till they're soft. You may want to drizzle with olive oil somewhere in here. Add salt and crushed black pepper to taste.

Now, take that mess and spread a bunch of it on a slice of bread. Cover with cheese and throw it under the broiler (or into the toaster oven) till cheese is melted and starting to brown or bubble.

If this dish had a name, I think it'd be called soffrito crostini, but who knows. Those crafty Italians have all sorts of clever names for things. This dish is especially good for first dates or just prior to a dentist's appointment.
