Step 1
Halve the 1 cup cherry tomatoes. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a small skillet over medium; add tomatoes and 1/4 tsp salt. Cook until soft and saucy, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 2
Push the tomato sauce to one side of the skillet. Add the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil to the empty side. Crack the 2 eggs into the oil, keeping them separate from the sauce.
Step 3
Season eggs with the remaining 1/4 tsp salt and the 1/4 tsp black pepper. Cover and cook until whites are set but yolks are still runny, about 3-4 minutes.
Step 4
Slide the eggs and sauce onto a plate, keeping them separated. Tear the 6 basil leaves over the top and serve immediately.
