Tomato-Caper Bruschetta:

1 baguette, sliced on bias, 4 pieces, no ends

2 garlic cloves, to rub on bread, plus 1 tablespoon garlic, diced

3 tablespoons olive oil

Directions

  1. Combine all ingredients, (except butter, 2 tablespoons white wine and 1/2 cup chicken stock) and let fish marinate for 1 hour.

I don’t understand how this recipe has received 5 stars. It, like Guy’s midtown NYC restaurant, was a huge disappointment. After all that effort, it ended up tasting just like tuna fish.
