Crostini with Garlic and Olive Oil

SERVES

PREP TIME

COOK TIME

Ingredients

1 loaf Italian bread or French baguette

Extra-virgin olive oil

1 to 2 large very fresh cloves garlic, peeled and sliced in half

Sea salt for sprinkling

Directions

  1. Preheat the grill to medium-low.

  2. Cut crostini bread in 1/3-inch slices. For Bruschetta, cut bread ½-to ¾ inch thick and cut slices in half. Brush both sides of bread lightly with oil.

  3. Place bread slices on hot grates, cover and grill, watching carefully, until bread is marked underneath but not charred, 2 to 3 minutes, depending on your flame. Turn the bread slices, cover and grill until marked on the other side and crisp, 1 to 2 minutes more. (Or, if you're grilling something else at the same time, place bread on the outer perimeter of the grill grates.)

  4. Transfer toasts to a board or plate. Rub one side of each piece lightly with the fresh garlic and sprinkle lightly with salt.

  5. Serve the toasts immediately with your favorite topping, along side of a salad or any dish.
