- Use fresh basil for the most vibrant flavor. Tear or chiffonade the basil leaves rather than chopping them to keep their flavor intact.
- For an extra layer of flavor, drizzle a bit of balsamic glaze over the finished dish just before serving.
- Roast the garlic along with the tomatoes for a sweeter, mellower garlic flavor that blends beautifully with the dish.
