Today’s Dish: Roasted Cherry Tomato Pasta

As we transition into the warmer months, I find myself craving light and flavorful meals that celebrate the bounty of fresh produce. That’s why I’m excited to share my recipe for Roasted Cherry Tomato Pasta with you today. This dish is vibrant, tangy, and perfect for a quick and satisfying weeknight dinner.

Ingredients:

  • 500g cherry tomatoes (halved)
  • 4 cloves of garlic (minced)
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • A handful of fresh basil leaves (chopped)
  • 400g linguine
  • 100g goat cheese (crumbled)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Kitchen Tools:

  • baking sheet
  • large mixing bowl
  • pot
  • colander
  • tongs

Preparation:

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. In a large mixing bowl, toss the halved cherry tomatoes and minced garlic with olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper. Spread the tomato mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet and roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the tomatoes are blistered and caramelized.

Meanwhile, cook the linguine according to package instructions in a pot of salted boiling water until al dente. Drain the pasta in a colander, reserving 1 cup of pasta water.

In a large serving bowl, toss the roasted cherry tomatoes and garlic with the cooked linguine, chopped fresh basil, and crumbled goat cheese. If the pasta seems dry, add a bit of the reserved pasta water to loosen it up. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.

Tips:

For an extra burst of flavor, try adding a squeeze of fresh lemon juice to the pasta before serving. The acidity will brighten up the dish and enhance all the other flavors.

Serving:

This Roasted Cherry Tomato Pasta recipe yields approximately 4 servings. The total weight of the cooked dish is around 1100g. Each serving weighs about 275g. With the richness of the goat cheese and the sweetness of the roasted tomatoes, each serving comes in at around 400 calories.
