Instruction
- Place the sliced tomatoes in a large bowl, add the fresh chopped garlic and 10 – 12 leaves of fresh basil.
- Add two to three tablespoons of olive oil and the seasonings and gently toss so that you do not break the tomatoes.
- Heat a large cast iron frying pan and place the tomato mixture in the pan and heat just until the tomatoes soften a bit.
- Prepare the ziti as directed and drain.
- Heat a smaller cast iron frying pan and place the butter in the pan. When the butter melts add the breadcrumbs and toss to absorb the butter.
