Catalan Tomato Bread
serves: 8
Source: Chef Steven Raichlen

8 French bread slices, cut sharply on the diagonal into 1/2" thick slices
4 cloves garlic, cut in half widthwise
1 large very ripe tomato, cut into 8 slices
a cruet of extra virgin olive oil (preferably Spanish)
a small bowl of coarse sea salt
a small bowl of freshly ground black pepper

Preheat the grill to medium-high. Grill the bread slices until crisp and nicely browned, 2 to 4 minutes per side.

Rub each slice of bread with the cut garlic, then with the cut tomato. The idea is to apply a thin film of tomato on the bread. Lightly drizzle each slice with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
