Ingredients:

  • 2 pints (600g) cherry tomatoes
  • 3 tbsp (45ml) extra virgin olive oil
  • 4 cloves (20g) minced garlic
  • 1 tbsp (15ml) aged balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tsp (6g) kosher salt
  • ½ tsp (3g) cracked black pepper
  • 2 tbsp (8g) chopped fresh basil leaves

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line your rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the cherry tomatoes, olive oil, minced garlic, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper. Use a silicone spatula to toss gently until the tomatoes are glossy and fully coated.
  3. Spread the mixture onto the baking sheet in a single layer. Roast for 20 minutes, or until the skins have burst and the edges are mahogany-colored.
  4. Remove the pan from the oven and sprinkle the fresh chopped basil over the top while the tomatoes are still sizzling.
