Instructions

Cut tomatoes in half. Cut olives in half. Mince garlic. Pat the capers dry with a paper towel.
Heat olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add tomatoes, olives, garlic, and capers. Cook for 2 or 3 minutes, just until the tomatoes start to soften but still hold their shape. Tip in the balsamic vinegar and cook for another minute or two. Remove pan from the heat.
Toast the bread slices. If you are using cheese, place the cheese on the bread as it toasts in a toaster oven or under the oven broiler. Top each slice with some of the balsamic tomato mixture. Garnish with flaky salt and freshly chopped basil and oregano. Serve immediately.
