TOMATO BASIL GARLIC BUTTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Give the cherry tomatoes, fresh basil leaves and lemon a quick wash, then dry them before prepping them.
• Grab a cutting board and a sharp knife and prep the cherry tomatoes by slicing them in half and set aside. Then finely mince the garlic - you can do this with a chef's knife or use a coarse microplane grater and set aside. Next, use a microplane or fine grater and zest the lemon - only zest the yellow part of the lemon peel, not the inner white pith and set aside. Then cut the lemon in half and squeeze a few teaspoons of juice into a small bowl and set aside.
• In a medium saucepan over low heat, add the butter and allow to melt - this should take about 1 minute. Once the butter has melted, increase the heat to medium and add the tomatoes, garlic, lemon zest and lemon juice. Cook for about 5 minutes, just until the cherry tomatoes start to break down. Then add the whole basil leaves to the sauce and give it several stirs until the basil leaves have slightly wilted into the sauce.
• At this point you can remove the sauce from the heat and season with sea salt and optional freshly ground pepper. Stir and serve immediately.
