Caprese salad with sliced tomatoes, bocconcini and fresh basil.
Ingredients:
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 400F (200C). Place basil, garlic, oil,
salt and pepper in a blender. Whirl to a saucy consistency. Add more oil
to make it more saucy, if needed. If making ahead, cover and
refrigerate up to 2 days. Cut bread in half horizontally, then cut each
half into quarters. Place cut side up on a rimmed baking sheet. Spread
half of basil mixture over bread, then evenly sprinkle with mozzarella.
Thickly slice bocconcini and tomatoes into rounds, then arrange in
overlapping slices on top of bread. Sprinkle with more salt and pepper.
-
Bake in centre of preheated oven until cheese starts to
melt, 7 to 10 minutes, then turn broiler to high. Broil until cheese
begins to turn golden, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from oven and drizzle
with remaining basil mixture. Cut each piece in half diagonally. Best
served warm.
