This recipe takes the classic garlic tomato slices to the next level by adding a medley of fresh herbs and a touch of balsamic glaze for an enhanced flavor profile.
Slice the ripe tomatoes into even rounds and arrange them on a serving plate.
Use a sharp knife to ensure clean cuts and prevent squishing the tomatoes.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, and salt.
Taste the marinade and adjust the salt or vinegar to your preference.
Drizzle the marinade evenly over the tomato slices.
Ensure each tomato slice is well coated for maximum flavor.
Sprinkle the fresh basil over the marinated tomatoes.
Tear the basil leaves by hand to release more aroma.
Let the dish sit in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours before serving.
Cover the plate with plastic wrap to prevent the tomatoes from drying out.
Serve the marinated tomatoes chilled as an appetizer or side dish.
Garnish with additional fresh basil or a drizzle of balsamic glaze for presentation.
