    • 4 cloves garlic, minced
    • 🌿 1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil
    • 🍅 4 large fresh tomatoes, peeled and chopped

  • Condiments & Oils

    • 🧈 2 tablespoons butter
    • 1 tablespoon tomato paste

STEPS

1

Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source. Toast muffin halves under broiler until golden, about 2 to 3 minutes.

2

Mix garlic, butter, and basil together in a small bowl; spread butter mixture evenly onto each toasted muffin half.

3

Combine tomatoes, olives, and tomato paste in a large bowl; set aside. Whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, and honey in a small bowl. Spoon some of the tomato mixture onto each muffin, then drizzle the olive oil mixture over the top, place a piece of mozzarella on top, and season with salt and pepper.

4

Return muffins to broiler; cook until the cheese has melted, 1 to 2 minutes. Serve immediately.
