Made with an attractive mixture of red, yellow, and orange tomatoes. Good and easy. I didn't have a lot of parsley so supplemented with chives, which was nice.
Sautéed Cherry Tomatoes with Shallots
Heat brings out the inherent sweetness of the tomatoes, while shallots give them a soft garlic-onion bite. Once the tomatoes pop, they're ready to serve. The ripeness of the tomatoes will determine how long they need to cook; the riper the tomatoes, the less time they'll need to pop. Grape tomatoes also work well in this recipe.
