- 0.25 cup fresh chives
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt

Directions
Step 1
Wash and dry the tomatoes thoroughly.

Step 5
Drizzle the olive oil and vinegar mixture evenly over the sliced tomatoes.
Step 6
Sprinkle the chopped herbs (basil, parsley, and chives) over the top of the tomatoes to evenly distribute the flavors.
Step 7
Season the dish with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
Step 8
Allow the tomatoes to marinate at room temperature for about 5 minutes before serving to enhance the flavors.
