Roasted Garlic Green Onion Filled Cherry Tomatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
• Toss the tomatoes lightly with olive oil on a baking sheet. Spread them out into one layer and sprinkle generously with kosher salt and pepper. Roast for 15 to 20 minutes, until the tomatoes are soft.
• Transfer the tomatoes to a serving bowl and sprinkle with basil leaves and sea salt. Serve hot or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Remove outer husk of garlic head, cut off top with stem so that tops of bulbs are exposed. Place on aluminum foil, drizzle with olive oil and salt and pepper. Close aluminum foil packet and place in 325F preheated oven for 45-60 minute When bulb is soft, remove from oven and allow to cool.
• Wash tomatoes. Cut a tiny sliver off of the bottom of each one, just to ensure they stand up (be careful not to pierce the tomato). Cut off top of each tomato and clean out insides. If you have time you can sprinkle the insides with salt and place upside down on a rack to drain, but it's not necessary.
• In a bowl, combine cream cheese, green onions or chives (or any other herb that goes well with roasted garlic) and lemon juice. Take roasted heaad of garlic and squeeze paste from bulbs directly into bowl. Mix well (I use the whisk attachment on a stand mixer, gets it blended nicely in no time).
• Use the piping bag to fill each tomato. Garnish as desired (sweet paprika and chives shown in picture). Note: if storing overnight in fridge, you may want to remove the cheese a few minutes before filling the tomatoes to soften it up and make it easier to squeeze out with the piping bag; however, I found that there was still a lot of condensation which dripped on the plate and tomato, so I wrapped a paper towel around the tip to catch any dripping.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Whisk olive oil, balsamic vinegar, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Add cherry tomatoes; toss to coat.
• Spread cherry tomatoes in an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet.
• Roast until skins are slightly shriveled, 35 to 40 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Place a piece of aluminum foil over a baking sheet.
• Place the tomatoes and garlic into a mixing bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, and toss until evenly coated. Season to taste with salt and pepper, then spread evenly onto the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake the grape tomatoes in the preheated oven until the skins pop and start to brown, 15 to 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat 1 Tb. olive oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high flame until it just starts to smoke. Add tomatoes, and season with salt and pepper. Saute, shaking pan frequently, until tomatoes soften and skins just begin to wrinkle, about 2 minutes. Stir in the garlic and continue to shake the pan until garlic is fragrant. Off heat, stir in the basil and remaining 1 Tb. olive oil, then serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees with a 12-by-14-inch roasting pan on center rack. Rub olive oil over onions and garlic, and place in pan. Season with salt and pepper. Cook until onions begin to brown, 35 to 45 minutes, stirring occasionally. If the pan gets too dry and onions begin to stick, add a few tablespoons of water. Lower heat to 400 degrees. Add raisins, stir, and cook 8 minutes more. Add tomatoes and brown sugar; cook until tomatoes begin to split, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Transfer the pan to top of stove over medium-high heat. Add Marsala, and season with salt and pepper. Stir well, scraping up any cooked-on bits. Stir until Marsala has been fully incorporated. Serve the vegetables warm.

Steps:

• In a foil-lined baking dish drizzle the garlic with the oil, bake it, covered loosely with foil, in the middle of a preheated 325°F. oven for 1 1/4 hours, or until the pulp is very soft, and let it cool until it can be easily handled. Squeeze the pulp from the cloves into a bowl and let it cool. Mash the pulp until it is smooth (there should be about 1/4 cup purée.)
• Using a serrated knife, on a work surface cut a thin slice from the bottom of each tomato so that it stands upright. Cut off a thin slice from each stem end and with a small melon-ball cutter scoop out the flesh and seeds carefully, forming tomato shells. Sprinkle the insides of the tomato shells with salt, invert the tomatoes on racks set over paper towels, and let them drain for 30 minutes.
• In a bowl whisk together the cream cheese, the lemon juice, the garlic purée, and salt and pepper to taste until the filling is smooth. Using a pastry bag fitted with a small star tip, pipe the filling into the tomato shells. Garnish the filled shells with basil.
