Check the salmon for pin bones and remove if necessary. Measure out a piece of heavy-duty foil (or use a double layer of regular foil) large enough for the salmon fillet. Coat the foil with olive oi. Place the salmon skin-side down on the foil and spread the garlic mixture all over it. Sprinkle with ┬╜ cup basil. Overlap tomato slices on top and sprinkle with the remaining ┬╝ teaspoon sea salt and pepper. Transfer the salmon on the foil to the grill. Grill until the fish flakes easily, 10 to 12 minutes. Use two large spatulas to slide the salmon from the foil to a serving platter. Serve the salmon sprinkled with the remaining 1/4 cup basil.
