Roasted Cherry tomato pasta
5 mins prepServes 6
For me summer is all about (mostly) simple recipes highlighting the beautiful fresh produce in abundance available. Tomatoes are always at the top of that list and this is one of my favorites ways to use them for a simple and easy pasta dish.
0 Toss the tomatoes in a baking dish with the garlic, a good drizzle of olive oil, salt and pepper. Bake at 400 F for 30-40 minutes, until the tomatoes burst and begin to brown.
1 Cook the pasta 1 minutes under al dente. Before draining reserve a mug full of pasta water.
2 When the tomatoes come out of the oven use a spoon to gently burst them so they release the juice, then add to the pasta along with some pasta water, the zest of a lemon, and some more extra virgin olive oil.
3 Plate it up and serve with parmigiano cheese and fresh basil.
