This is a simple, delicious dish of cherry tomatoes and olives. Garlic and balsamic vinegar round out the flavor, and pine nuts add a pleasant crunch if desired. Quick cooking over high heat intensifies the tomatoes so this is good even in winter! Ingredients:
1 tablespoon olive oil |
1 clove garlic, minced |
2 cups cherry tomatoes |
2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar |
1/4 cup pitted kalamata olives |
1 tablespoon pine nuts (optional) |
ground black pepper to taste |
Directions:
1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in the garlic, tomatoes, and balsamic vinegar. Cook, stirring, until the tomatoes are hot and wrinkled, about 7 minutes. Mix in the olives and pine nuts, and season with pepper. Continue to cook and stir until heated through, about 3 additional minutes. |
