Ingredients
1
pound ripe heirloom or beefsteak tomatoes (about 2 large tomatoes), halved crosswise
¼
cup extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for serving
2
tablespoons drained capers, plus 1 tablespoon caper brine
2
tablespoons minced shallot
2
tablespoons distilled white vinegar
2
teaspoons kosher salt
1
teaspoon black pepper
⅛
teaspoon grated garlic
4
ounces Swiss chard, stems separated and thinly sliced, leaves stacked and cut into 1/4-inch-thick ribbons
8
ounces cherry or grape tomatoes, halved
1
(14-ounce) can lentils, rinsed and drained
4
thick toast slices
Freshly grated Parmesan, for serving
Preparation
- Working over a large bowl, grate flesh side tomatoes on the large holes of a box grater until all that’s left is the tomato skin; discard skin. (You should have about 1 1/2 cups juice and pulp.) Stir in oil, capers and caper brine, shallot, vinegar, salt, pepper, garlic and 1/4 cup cold water. Add Swiss chard and cherry tomatoes and mix well. Let stand for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Stir lentils into tomato-marinated greens and mix well. Spoon mixture over toast. Drizzle with oil, top with cheese and serve immediately.
