Pink lobster sauce

By aredden8

Ingredients

• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 9 medium cloves garlic, finely chopped
• 6 ripe tomatoes, chopped
• 10 fresh basil leaves, julienned
• 1/4 cup heavy cream
• 1/2 cup fresh-grated Parmesan cheese
• salt and fresh-ground black pepper, to taste

Preparation

Step 1

In a nonreactive heavy skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Saute garlic about 3 minutes, or just until it begins to color a bit; don't let it burn. Add tomatoes, basil and cream, bring to a simmer, reduce heat to medium-low and let sauce reduce about 2 minutes. Stir in parmesan cheese until it melts and season with salt and pepper. Don't let sauce boil after adding cheese or it will get stringy. (You can make this a day ahead and reheat over low heat or in a double boiler.)
