Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 pints red cherry tomatoes
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • 16 whole fresh basil leaves, torn
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 whole baguette

Instructions

  • In a small skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add in the garlic and stir, cooking for about one minute, until golden. Add the tomatoes and cook for 3-4 minutes, until warm, mashing lightly to burst open.
  • Place the cooked garlic and tomatoes in a medium-sized mixing bowl and add balsamic, basil, salt and pepper.
  • Cut the baguette into 1/4 inch thick diagonal slices. Paint each with a thin coating of olive oil and broil until golden brown on both sides; about 2-3 minutes on each side.
  • To serve, spoon tomato mixture generously over the slices of bread. Serve warm on a platter as a first course or appetizer.
