Ingredients for Grilled Tuscan Loaf

Method

Instructions for Grilled Tuscan Loaf

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bread

    Slice the rustic Italian bread into thick slices, about 1 inch each.

  2. 2

    Grill the Bread

    Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium heat. Brush each slice of bread with olive oil on both sides and place them on the grill. Grill for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until they are golden brown and have grill marks.

  3. 3

    Make the Topping

    While the bread is grilling, mince the garlic and chop the cherry tomatoes. In a mixing bowl, combine the chopped tomatoes, minced garlic, fresh basil leaves, balsamic vinegar, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Dish

    Once the bread slices are grilled, remove them from the grill and place them on a serving platter. Spoon the tomato and basil mixture generously over each piece of grilled bread.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Drizzle with a little extra-virgin olive oil before serving. Enjoy your Grilled Tuscan Loaf warm!
