Tomates cerises bordelaise (cherry tomatoes & shallots)

4 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 quart Ripe but firm cherry cherry tomatoes
Salt & freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons Butter
1 tablespoon Finely chopped shallots
1 tablespoon Finely chopped parsley

Directions

Pick over the tomatoes and discard the stems. Rinse and drain the tomatoes.

Heat the butter in a large skillet and when it is quite hot but not brown add the tomatoes, salt, and pepper. Cook, shaking the skillet so that the tomatoes cook evenly.

Cook about 2 minutes. They should not be heated through. If they are overcooked, they will collapse. Add the shallots and parsley and cook, shaking the skillet, about 15 seconds.
