This is one of the appetizers my friends request most. There is rarely any left over when I serve it. The red pepper flakes and basil add a nice little kick to the taste. -Barbara McCalley, Allison Park, Pennsylvania

Categories     Vegetable

Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 roma tomatoes, diced
2 cloves garlic, chopped
2 cloves garlic, peeled
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 1/4 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons chopped fresh basil
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh cracked pepper
8 slices Italian bread, cut about 1 inch thick
2 tablespoons grated parmigiano-reggiano cheese

Steps:

  • Whisk together chopped garlic, vinegar, salt, pepper, and basil.
  • When combined slowly drizzle in oil.
  • Add tomatoes and let sit for 20 minutes at room temp.
  • Meanwhile back at the bat cave, toast the bread.
  • This can be done either in the toaster (if it's got really wide slots) or under the broiler (if using this method watch closely so it doesn't become a brickette).
  • When the bread is toasted rub each piece, on one side, with the whole garlic pieces.
  • Place the bread on a cookie sheet and top with tomato mixture.
  • Sprinkle on a little cheese and broil till the cheese melts (you can skip that last broiling bit and it's equally as wonderful).
  • Serve immediately.
  • The tomato mixture also makes a wonderful vinegrette for an antipasto salad.
  • Enjoy!
