Ingredients

Scale

Pasta

  • 8 ounces pasta (spaghetti or penne)

Roasted Tomato Garlic Sauce

  • 2 cups cherry tomatoes
  • 6 cloves garlic, peeled
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt, to taste
  • Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare Tomatoes: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the cherry tomatoes and whole garlic cloves on a baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and toss to coat evenly.
  2. Roast Tomatoes and Garlic: Roast the tomatoes and garlic in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until the tomatoes are blistered and slightly caramelized, and the garlic is soft and fragrant.
  3. Cook Pasta: Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the pasta according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
  4. Combine Sauce and Pasta: Once roasted, mash the garlic cloves with a fork, then stir the garlic and roasted tomatoes together, seasoning with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Toss this mixture with the cooked pasta to coat evenly.
  5. Serve: Serve the pasta warm, optionally garnished with fresh basil or grated Parmesan cheese.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, add chili flakes or fresh herbs like basil or parsley.
  • You can substitute cherry tomatoes with grape tomatoes or other small tomatoes.
  • Use gluten-free pasta to make the dish gluten-free.
  • Leftover pasta can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
