Roasted Garlic Tomatoes - Perfect Holiday Canape
Description
This recipe starts by tossing whole grape tomatoes with minced garlic, olive oil, dried basil, kosher salt, and black pepper to evenly coat them. Roasting at 400 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes softens the tomatoes, concentrates their sweetness, and gently roasts the garlic flavor throughout. The heat also enhances the basil’s aroma and firms up the tomatoes’ skins for a pleasant texture.
The optional addition of shredded Parmesan cheese can be sprinkled on after roasting or for the last minute in the oven, adding a salty, nutty dimension.
These roasted tomatoes make a light canape suitable for holiday gatherings or a flavorful side for grilled meats or salads. They can be served warm or at room temperature.
