Garnish and serve: Remove from oven and let cool slightly. Garnish with fresh basil leaves, if desired. Serve warm, either as an appetizer with toothpicks or as a flavourful side dish.
For enhanced flavor, consider adding a pinch of dried oregano or thyme to the tomatoes before roasting.
Roasting time may vary depending on the size and ripeness of your tomatoes. Keep a close eye on them to prevent burning.
These tomatoes are also delicious tossed with pasta, spread on bruschetta, or served alongside grilled meats.
