Roasted Tomatoes Caprese Recipes

ROASTED TOMATOES CAPRESE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F and coat a shallow baking pan with nonstick spray.
• Remove the cores from the tomatoes and cut away a very thin slice from both the top and bottom of each to expose the flesh.
• Cut each tomato into 3 thick slices (about 5/8-inch) and arrange them on the prepared baking pan.
• Combine the olive oil and garlic in a small bowl and brush some onto each slice of tomato, then season with salt and pepper.
• Roast until the tomatoes are tender and the skins are slightly wrinkled, 9 to 12 minutes.
• Remove from the oven, top with mozzarella, then continue roasting until the cheese is nicely melted, 2 to 3 minutes longer.
• Top with the chopped basil and serve immediately.

ROASTED TOMATO CAPRESE SALAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C).

• Roast tomatoes in the preheated oven until they begin to turn brown and the juices become thick and sticky, about 2 hours. Let tomatoes cool to room temperature.
• Place tomato halves and slices of mozzarella cheese onto a serving platter, alternating tomatoes and cheese to make an attractive pattern; sprinkle salad with basil. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil and 1 1/2 teaspoon balsamic vinegar.
