I used a grill pan for this, but if you do this on the grill, brush both sides of the tomatoes with olive oil.

1/4 tsp. salt, pepper

Rinse and slice tomatoes.

Preheat grill pan to medium high heat. 

Lower heat to medium, add oil.

Place tomatoes on grill, sprinkle salt & pepper over tomatoes and grill on 1 side for a couple of minutes.

Flip tomatoes over and grill on other side, sprinkle salt and pepper on other side and grill for a couple of minutes more. 

Serves 4 - 6.
