Core tomatoes by cutting out a small cone-shaped wedge from around the stem. Slice tomatoes in half from top to bottom. Slice half of the tomato into \u00bd\u201d thick slices. Slice remaining halves into \u00bd\u201d-thick wedges. Set tomato pieces on the prepared rack. Sprinkle on both sides with salt; let sit 10 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n <\/div>\t\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"step-preparation \">\n <div>\n\t\n\n<p>Cook garlic, chile, and\u00a0<strong>Monini Coratina Extra Virgin Olive Oil<\/strong>\u00a0in a large high-sided skillet over medium-low heat, stirring until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add tomatoes, one at a time,\u00a0 into a snug single layer with little overlap (like filling a fruit tart). Leave out any that don\u2019t fit. Scatter olives over top of and in between tomatoes. Increase heat to medium-low so oil is simmering very lightly, cover, and cook 2 minutes. Uncover and sprinkle oregano over tomatoes. Cover again and cook tomatoes until warmed through and very fragrant but not falling apart, 3\u20135 minutes more.<\/p>\n\n\n <\/div>\t\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"step-preparation \">\n <div>\n\t\n\n<p>Remove pan from heat; set a platter that is the same size as the pan beside it.
