• 2 cloves garlic cloves
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoons dried Italian seasoning
• 2 tablespoons fresh basil leaves
• 1 teaspoon balsamic glaze

Directions

Step 1

Wash and pat dry the grape tomatoes. Slice any larger tomatoes in half for even cooking.

Step 2

Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves.

Step 3

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering but not smoking.

Step 4

Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

Step 5

Add the grape tomatoes to the skillet and stir to coat them evenly in the garlic and oil.

Step 6

Sprinkle the salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning over the tomatoes. Stir to combine.

Step 7

Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5-7 minutes, or until the tomatoes soften and begin to blister. Some tomatoes may release their juices.

Step 8

Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the sautéed tomatoes to a serving dish.

Step 9

Finely chop the fresh basil leaves and sprinkle them over the tomatoes.

Step 10

Drizzle the balsamic glaze on top just before serving for an extra layer of flavor. Serve warm or at room temperature.
