Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs heirloom or cherry tomatoes, chopped into bite-sized wedges
  • ½ cup red onion, thinly sliced
  • ¼ cup fresh basil leaves, torn or chiffonade
  • 2 tbsp fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped
  • 3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 clove garlic, finely minced
  • ½ tsp kosher salt
  • ¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper

Instructions:

  1. Dice the tomatoes into uniform pieces and slice the red onion as thinly as possible.
  2. In a small jar or bowl, combine the olive oil, red wine vinegar, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Shake or whisk vigorously until the mixture looks glossy and slightly thickened.
  3. Place the tomatoes and onions in a large bowl. Drizzle the dressing over the top and toss gently with tongs.
  4. Fold in the fresh basil and parsley at the very end to prevent bruising.
