Step 1

Drizzle each bread slice with a little bit of olive oil on each side. Get a grill pan, oil it up a bit, and heat on medium-high heat. Once hot, grill the bread on each side until charred.

Step 2

Remove the bread from the grill and rub each slice with the half clove garlic. This will give the bread so much aroma and flavour.

Step 3

Add the tomatoes to a bowl with a pinch of salt, minced garlic, basil, and drizzle of olive oil and stir. Top each slice of bread with a heaping tablespoon of the tomatoes. Optionally, you can drizzle on balsamic glaze or balsamic vinegar and enjoy.

Step 4

This appetizer is meant to be enjoyed right away so if you are making it for a party you can grill the bread the day before and toss everything together before you serve it. It is not to be kept in the fridge because it will go soggy.
