Servings: 12 servings
Servings: 1/2 cup
Equipment
Ingredients
- Tomatoes such as Roma (plum) Tomatoes- 2 pounds, about 12-15 depending on the size..
- Olive oil– ½ cup divided.
- Garlic– 3 cloves minced.
- Seasonings- 1 ½ tablespoons total. As mentioned above using Italian style seasonings may seem like a no-brainer in a recipe such as this one. However, perhaps using a seasoning that resembles a fire roasting would even taste better than Italian seasonings in this recipe (especially if you are roasting in your oven!).
Instructions
- Prepare your tomatoes by slicing them lengthwise in half. Remove as much fluid and as many seeds as possible. You can use a spoon to help you with this process.
- Prepare a grill basket or grill pan with brushed on olive oil. Or, if using the oven method, prepare your pan. Alternatively, if you are using a pan or (baking sheet) you can use aluminum foil with nonstick spray.
- Preheat you oven to 450 or your grill on high if using a grill.
- In a medium bowl, combine together the remaining olive oil with the garlic and seasonings.
- Dip each individual tomato half the bowl, covering the entire piece well and allowing the remaining mixture to drip back into the bowl. Then place the tomato half on the prepared basket or pan with the sliced side up.
- Drizzle any remaining oil mixture over the tomatoes after you are done placing them all on to the prepared basket or pan.
- Grill the tomatoes until they are charred and then allow them to cool before serving (it should take just a few minutes).
- Oven method, roast for 45-50 minutes or until the the tomatoes begin to brown. Allow them to cool before serving.
