Ingredients
- 2 lbs. ripe cherry tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 5 cloves garlic (use more if you love garlic)
- 1 teaspoon sea salt adjust to taste
- ¾ teaspoon freshly ground pepper adjust to taste
- 5-10 sprigs fresh thyme (can use fresh basil instead of thyme)
Instructions
- Cover a baking tray with aluminum foil. Rinse tomatoes well.
- You can remove the vines and arrange tomatoes on baking tray before roasting. Or leave tomatoes on their vine and roast them. You will remove vines later once the tomatoes are roasted.
- Arrange cherry tomatoes in one layer. Spread garlic cloves over tomatoes. Spray/drizzle olive oil all over. Season with salt and pepper. Spread fresh thyme all over the tomatoes.
- Roast cherry tomatoes in pre-heated oven at 400 degree Fahrenheit for 20-25 minutes. Remove tray from oven, let it sit for few minutes.
- Carefully remove the vines (note after roasting vines will be crispy and can break off into powder). To make it easy to remove tomatoes, use a fork and carefully pull off all squishy tomatoes and then remove vines and discard them.
- Roasted cherry tomatoes can be served as an appetizer or as a topping over main dishes such as grilled chicken, grilled tilapia, or pork chops. You can also top it over pizza, for bruschetta, over pasta, stirred with soup.
Notes
- Nutritional Info – Please keep in mind that the nutritional information provided is only a rough estimate and can vary greatly based on the products used.
- Use a rimmed baking tray so you don't lose those delicious juices and line the tray with parchment paper so it's easy to clean. To prevent fresh herbs from burning, add them towards the end of roasting time, 5 minutes before tomatoes get cooked. Don't skip garlic. I highly recommend fresh garlic. Leave the whole, no need to cut them in half. It makes it easier and quicker to roast whole cherry tomatoes. Do not over-crowd the tray, arrange cherry tomatoes in a single layer so they caramelize well.
