Blistered Tomatoes

Ingredients

• 2 cups cherry tomatoes
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 garlic cloves (minced)
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil (or other herbs)
• kosher salt and black pepper (to taste)

Steps

1. 1

   Heat the oil in a medium pan over medium-high heat. Add the tomatoes and let them sit undisturbed in the pan for 2 minutes, to blister on the bottom.

2. 2

   Add the garlic, salt, and pepper, then stir together with the tomatoes. Let them cook and blister another 2-3 minutes, stirring a few more times.

3. 3

   Remove the blistered tomatoes from the heat, then top with chopped basil or other fresh herbs.
