The Fiery Goat

Step 1

In a 10-inch ovenproof skillet, combine the olive oil, garlic and onion. Cook over high heat, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the paprika, Italian seasoning and red pepper flakes and cook, stirring, until the onion starts to soften, 3 to 5 minutes.

Step 2

Pour in the wine and let it reduce for about 1 minute while stirring. Add the tomatoes, roasted peppers and a dash of salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until the liquid has cooked off, 8 to 10 minutes.

Step 3

Meanwhile, preheat the broiler.

Step 4

Top the tomato and pepper mixture with the goat cheese, lightly pressing the slices into the sauce. Broil until the cheese is deep golden brown, 2 to 4 minutes. Sprinkle over the parsley and lemon zest. Serve hot with crostini and crackers to dip.
