Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Baguette

    Slice the baguette into 1/2 inch thick slices. Preheat the grill or grill pan over medium heat.

  2. 2

    Grill the Bread

    Brush both sides of the baguette slices with olive oil. Place the slices on the grill and toast for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden and crispy.

Tomato Topping

  1. 3

    Prepare the Tomatoes

    Dice the tomatoes and place them in a mixing bowl. Make sure to remove the seeds if you prefer a less watery topping.

  2. 4

    Add Basil and Season

    Chop the fresh basil leaves and add them to the diced tomatoes. Mince the garlic cloves and add them to the mixture. Drizzle with remaining olive oil, season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Assembly

  1. 5

    Top the Bread

    Once the bread is done grilling, remove it from the grill and immediately top each slice with the tomato and basil mixture.

  2. 6

    Serve

    Serve the bruschetta immediately while the bread is still warm. Enjoy!
