Sure, here’s a simple recipe for cherry tomato pints:
Ingredients:
- 2 pints of cherry tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3-4 cloves of garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh herbs (such as basil or parsley), chopped (optional)
Instructions:
- Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C).
- Prepare tomatoes: Rinse the cherry tomatoes and pat them dry with a paper towel. If they are very large, you can slice them in half. Otherwise, leave them whole.
- Season: In a large bowl, toss the cherry tomatoes with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. You can also add some chopped fresh herbs if you like.
- Arrange on a baking sheet: Spread the seasoned cherry tomatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil. Make sure they are not overcrowded.
- Roast: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the cherry tomatoes for about 20-25 minutes, or until they are softened and slightly caramelized. Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
- Serve: Once roasted, remove the cherry tomatoes from the oven and let them cool slightly. You can serve them as a side dish, toss them with pasta, use them as a topping for bruschetta, or add them to salads or sandwiches. They are delicious hot or at room temperature.
Enjoy your roasted cherry tomatoes!
