- Add halved cherry tomatoes to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, until they begin to soften and burst slightly.
- Stir in lemon zest and juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

- Serve immediately, garnished with fresh basil (optional) and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese (optional).
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
