Time 1h30m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 tablespoons olive oil
5 cloves garlic, finely minced
1 pint red grape tomatoes, halved lengthwise
1 whole baguette or crusty loaf
1 pint yellow grape tomatoes, halved lengthwise
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
16 whole fresh basil leaves, plus more as needed, chiffonade
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 stick butter

Steps:

  • In a small skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and stir, lightly frying for about a minute, removing before the garlic gets too brown (it can be golden). Pour the garlic and oil into a mixing bowl and allow to cool slightly.
  • Add the red and yellow tomatoes, balsamic and basil to the bowl. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Toss to combine, and then taste and add more basil if needed, and more salt if needed (don't over salt, though!) Cover and refrigerate for an hour or two if you have the time.
  • Cut the baguette into diagonal slices to allow for the most surface area possible. Melt 4 tablespoons of the butter in a large skillet and grill half the bread on both sides, making sure they're nice and buttery. Cook until golden brown on both sides. Repeat with the remaining 4 tablespoons butter and the other half of the bread.
  • To serve, give the tomato mixture a final stir, and then spoon generously over the slices of bread. Serve on a big platter as a first course or appetizer.

SUN-DRIED TOMATO BRUSCHETTA WITH GOAT CHEESE



Sun-Dried Tomato Bruschetta with Goat Cheese image

Make and share this Sun-Dried Tomato Bruschetta with Goat Cheese recipe from Food.com.

Provided by PalatablePastime

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 15m

Yield 12 appetizers

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 ounces goat cheese, crumbled
12 slices Italian bread or 12 slices French bread, 3/4 inch thick
12 sun-dried tomatoes
1 cup fresh basil leaf
extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat broiler.
  • Slice your bread, if you have not done so already; place them on a baking sheet which you have lined with aluminum foil (just in case something falls off and tries to burn).
  • Place the bread under the broiler and toast until light golden; remove.
  • Turn the bread over, place the bread under the broiler and toast just until the bread firms slightly but not golden yet; remove.
  • Brush the lighter side with olive oil (you may decline this if you are using tomatoes packed in oil, but it's your choice).
  • On top of that lay out some basil leaves to cover the top of the bread.
  • Mince the sun-dried tomatoes and sprinkle on top of the basil; I use regular dried on mine that are still pliant like raisins; if yours are hard you may need to have soaked them in warm water in advance and squeezed dry then mince; but you can do that now, no biggie.
  • On top of the tomatoes sprinkle a generous amount of goat cheese and tap down so it doesn't fall off.
  • If you like you can add a pinch of sea salt but I didn't.
  • Place the bruschettas under the broiler and toast just until the cheese starts to soften and the edges get nice and brown; serve.

Tips:

  • Season the tomatoes with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Spread the goat cheese on the toasted bread slices.
  • Top the goat cheese with the tomatoes.
  • Drizzle the bruschetta with olive oil.
  • Garnish the bruschetta with fresh herbs, such as basil or mint.
