- Ingredients
- 6 ripe, red Tomatoes (washed and cut in half)
- coarse salt (to taste)
- freshly ground Black pepper (to taste)
- 3 Tbsps extra virgin olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic cloves (peeled and minced)
- 3 sprigs fresh rosemary (washed and dried)
- 3 sprigs fresh Basil (washed and dried)
- Oil (for grill grate)
Preparation steps
1.
Season the tomato halves with salt and pepper. Set aside.
2.
Heat the oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic, cook until golden brown and fragrant, about 1 to 2 minutes. Pour the oil and garlic into a small bowl. Set aside.
3.
Prepare the grill for direct grilling. Preheat to high heat.
4.
When ready to cook. Lightly oil the hot grill grate. Place the tomatoes cut side down on the hot grate. Grill for 3 to 5 minutes, or until nicely browned. Using tongs, turn the tomatoes over. Brush or spoon the sauteed garlic on top of the tomatoes; reserving some oil for the rosemary and basil. Continue cooking for 3 to 5 minutes. Brush the rosemary and basil with remaining garlic oil and arrange on grill a minute before the tomatoes are done.
5.
Transfer tomatoes and herbs to a serving dish or pan. Check seasoning. Serve immediately.
