Begin by slicing the goat cheese into rounds and placing them in a square baking dish. Generously sprinkle fresh basil, thyme, and crushed red pepper flakes over the cheese, finishing with a dash of salt and pepper. Drizzle with high-quality extra virgin olive oil, ensuring each piece is coated. Allow to marinate at room temperature for 15 minutes to an hour, or refrigerate for up to 24 hours.

While the cheese marinates, preheat your grill to high heat or your oven to 400°F (200°C). Slice the sourdough or French baguette into diagonal pieces about 1-inch thick. Drizzle olive oil on both sides of each slice and season with salt. Grill the bread for about 2-3 minutes per side, or toast in the oven until golden brown and crispy.

Spread a generous layer of the marinated goat cheese over each piece of grilled bread. Top with sliced fresh strawberries, allowing their sweetness to complement the tanginess of the cheese. Drizzle honey over the topped crostini and sprinkle with a pinch of salt and extra herbs if desired. Serve promptly.
