How to Make Roasted Roma Tomatoes

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with foil and lightly coat with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons olive oil, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil, 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  3. Halve 1 pound of Roma tomatoes and arrange them cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet.
  4. Brush the tomatoes generously with the olive oil mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated.
  5. Roast for 25-30 minutes, or until the tomatoes have softened, are sizzling, and their edges are slightly charred.
  6. Serve immediately as a delicious hot side dish. Garnish with extra fresh basil if desired.
