  2. Halve the grape tomatoes. In a medium skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the halved grape tomatoes to the hot skillet. Saute for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften and slightly caramelize.
  4. Stir in 1 clove minced garlic, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Cook for another minute, until fragrant.
  5. Remove from heat and transfer the sauteed tomatoes to a serving bowl.
