Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tomatoes

    Wash the fresh tomatoes thoroughly under running water. Remove the stems and cut them into halves or quarters, depending on your preference.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Garlic

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic cloves and sauté until fragrant, about 1 minute.

  3. 3

    Cook the Tomatoes

    Add the prepared tomatoes to the skillet. Stir well to coat them in the garlic and olive oil. Cook for 5-7 minutes until the tomatoes start to soften.

    Season the Mixture

    Season the tomatoes with salt and black pepper. Stir to combine and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.

  5. 5

    Add Fresh Basil

    Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the fresh basil leaves. Let it sit for a minute to allow the flavors to meld.

  6. 6
