Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Balsamic Reduction

    In a small saucepan, bring the balsamic vinegar to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 10-15 minutes, or until it has thickened and reduced to about 1/4 cup. Remove from heat and let it cool.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Tomatoes

    Chop the tomatoes into bite-sized pieces and place them in a large bowl. Add olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Toss well to combine and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Tear the fresh basil leaves and add them to the marinated tomatoes. Drizzle the balsamic reduction over the mixture and toss gently to combine.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Transfer the marinated tomatoes and basil to a serving dish. Drizzle with additional olive oil and balsamic reduction if desired. Serve immediately.
