Ingredients

– 12 ounces pasta (spaghetti, linguine, or your choice)
– 2 pints cherry tomatoes
– 3 tablespoons olive oil
– 4 cloves garlic, minced
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– 1 teaspoon dried oregano
– Fresh basil leaves, for garnish
– Grated Parmesan cheese, for serving (optional)


Instructions

Creating Pasta with Roasted Cherry Tomatoes is straightforward if you follow these easy steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C), ensuring it’s ready for roasting.

2. Prepare the Tomatoes: Wash the cherry tomatoes and place them on a baking sheet. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, and season with salt, pepper, and dried oregano. Toss to coat evenly.

3. Roasting the Tomatoes: Roast the tomatoes in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes. They should become blistered and slightly caramelized.

4. Cook the Pasta: While the tomatoes are roasting, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the pasta and cook according to package instructions until al dente.

5. Sauté Garlic: In a large skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

6. Combine: Once the pasta is cooked and drained, add it to the skillet with the sautéed garlic. Toss well to combine.

7. Add Tomatoes: Remove the roasted tomatoes from the oven and carefully add them, along with their juices, to the pasta. Toss everything gently to combine.

8. Season: Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper, if needed.

9. Garnish: Serve the pasta hot, topped with fresh basil leaves and grated Parmesan cheese if desired.

10. Enjoy: Delight in a big bowl of this amazing pasta topped with the incredible roasted cherry tomatoes!
