Step 1
Cut bread into 1-inch cubes. Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Step 2
Add bread cubes and cook 4–5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden and crispy all over.
Step 3
Transfer bread to a large bowl. Whisk together vinegar, remaining 4 tbsp oil, garlic, salt, and pepper.
Step 4
Add tomatoes, onion, and basil to the bowl with bread. Pour vinaigrette over and toss gently.
Step 5
Let sit for 5 minutes so flavors blend and bread absorbs the dressing, then taste and adjust seasoning.
Step 6
Serve at room temperature or chilled.
