Olive oil, for drizzling

Directions

  1. In a large pot, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and onions and cook, stirring, until the vegetables soften, 3 to 5 minutes.

Stir in the tomatoes (with their juices) and chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer 10 minutes to allow the flavors to develop. Remove from the heat and cool slightly. Garnish with chopped basil and serve with Garlic Crostini.

Garlic Crostini:
