Directions

  1. Combine broth and butter for coulis in a saucepan over medium heat. Add red pepper and season with salt and pepper, simmer for 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to cool slightly, about 5 minutes.

  2. Meanwhile, whisk eggs and milk together in a large bowl. Add bread slices and soak until all liquids are uniformly absorbed.

  3. Pour cooled broth mixture into a food processor. Puree until coulis is smooth.

  4. Melt 1 teaspoon butter on a griddle over medium heat. Pan-fry French toast slices until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Cut each piece into triangles and divide evenly among 2 plates.

  5. Sprinkle with goat cheese, tomatoes, parsley, and basil. Drizzle with coulis. Serve immediately with remaining coulis on the side.
