How to Make Baked Smoked Mozzarella Tomato

  1. Preheat your oven broiler to high.
  2. Grease a small (approximately 6-inch) ovenproof dish with 1/2 teaspoon of olive oil.
  3. Layer half of 8 ounces of smoked mozzarella, sliced, over the bottom of the dish. Top with 1 cup of cherry or grape tomatoes, halved. Season generously with 1 teaspoon dried basil, 1 clove minced garlic, salt, and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
  4. Top with the remaining 8 ounces of sliced smoked mozzarella. Drizzle with 1/2 teaspoon of virgin olive oil.
  5. Place the dish on the middle rack under the preheated broiler for 5-7 minutes, or until the mozzarella is melted, bubbly, and golden brown around the edges. Watch closely to prevent burning.
  6. Serve immediately while hot and bubbly. Enjoy!
