Ingredients

  • 6-8 cups cherry tomatoes (or mixed varieties), stems removes
  • 2/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, sliced
  • 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 1/2 cup (1-2 big handfuls) fresh basil, sliced
  • salt
  • pepper

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 325ยบ F. In an oven-safe baking/casserole dish, combine the tomatoes with the olive oil, red pepper flakes, herbs, and a sprinkle of salt and fresh-cracked pepper.
  • Bake for 30-45 minutes, stirring twice. The tomatoes should be soft, golden, and beginning to burst. Remove from oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes before eating.
  • Serve the tomatoes on salads, polenta, pasta, rice, or your favorite proteins. The tomato-infused olive oil is also delicious as a sauce, so be sure to keep any remaining and put it to use! Enjoy!
