- 12 slices rustic country bread
- 6 ripe tomatoes sliced in half
- 6 cloves garlic sliced in half
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- flaky sea salt to taste
Preheat grill to medium hot. (See notes for other grilling options)Grill bread for 2 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and grill marks appear. While bread is warm, rub with the cut side of garlic clove.
Next, rub the cut side of a tomato on the bread, lightly squeezing pulp out. (Each tomato half should do 2 pieces of bread)
Drizzle with olive oil.
Sprinkle with flaky salt to taste. Serve immediately.
- Best eaten immediately, but can be warmed in the oven if needed. Heat on a rack inside of a sheet pan so bread stays crunchy.
- If grilling the bread isn't an option, you can use a grill pan on top of the stove, or use the broiler function in the oven.
