Tomates asados para todo

Ingredientes

• 1 1/2 pounds ripe cherry tomatoes
• 1 to 2 dried chiles de árbol (stemmed, thinly sliced)
• 3 to 4 shallots (about 1/2 pound, outer layer peeled, thinly sliced)
• 2 garlic cloves (peeled, thinly sliced)
• 1/2 cup olive oil
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Preparación

1. 1

   Set the rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 400°F.

2. 2

   On a small baking sheet, combine the tomatoes, chiles de árbol, shallots, garlic, oil, salt and pepper and toss to combine.

3. 3

   Place in the oven and roast for 45 to 50 minutes, until tomatoes have completely softened and almost fallen apart and are charred on the outside.

4. 4

   The roasted tomatoes can be used on avocado toast, pasta, grilled asparagus, an egg scramble or a cheese omelet.

5. 5

   Note: It is important that the tomatoes be ripe for full flavor. If they seem hard or a bit unripe, leave them in a bowl on your countertop for a few days so they can continue ripening until fully colored and softened.
