Balsamic Roasted Tomatoes with Fresh Basil
I was making flank steak for dinner and wanted to pair it with some balsamic roasted tomatoes with fresh basil. I drizzled the tomatoes with olive oil and balsamic vinegar then seasoned them with a bit of sea salt, freshly cracked pepper, and garlic powder, to taste. I roasted them for 35-40 minutes then topped them with fresh basil. They were absolutely delicious! We all, except for my son, loved them. My son wasn’t a fan – oh well, more for me!

I can never get enough roasted tomatoes, yum!
Love roasted tomatoes! These are delish, Pam.
Roasted tomatoes and balsamic vinegar together sounds divine! Looks tasty Pam! 🙂
Simple and healthy, I would love to try this, need to use up tomato from a garden soon !
I love roasted tomatoes. Your recipe looks amazing, Pam!
I’ll be making those tonight!
Hopefully your son will grow out of that… I don’t think I would have liked these much either as a kid.. but give me a full plate of these now and I’d devour them!!!
roasted tomatoes with steak (and a little bit of blue cheese) is our favorite too!
We love ours roasted with parmesan, too!
I had so many homegrown tomatoes, but I never thought of roasting them even though I roast many veggies. This sounds delicious. I’ll have to roast some of the remaining tomatoes!
What a great side dish, Pam Roasting does wonderful things for tomatoes.
Throw some cheese on these and I’d be pretty content to eat these alone for dinner!
Yum, these look and sound delicious. I love roasted tomatoes.
I know this sounds stupid, but could you give me an idea of how much olive oil and how much balsamic vinegar you used? Thank you.
Tammy,
It’s not stupid! I literally just drizzled a little bit of olive oil and balsamic vinegar on top of each tomato – probably 1/2 teaspoon of each. I also drizzled a bit more balsamic vinegar on them after they cooked because we love balsamic vinegar.
I hope this helps.
Cheers,
Pam
