Description

This Roasted Tomato Caprese Pasta could not be any simpler to make, and the flavors will astound!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 lbs. Campari tomatoes
  • 1/4 cup good olive oil, plus more for drizzling
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp. balsamic vinegar
  • 2 large garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 tsp. sugar
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 16 ounces fresh mozzarella
  • 1520 large fresh basil leaves, julienned
  • 1 pound farfalle

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 300 F.
  2. Arrange the tomatoes on a sheet pan in a single layer. Drizzle with the olive oil and balsamic vinegar.
  3. Sprinkle with the garlic, sugar, 1 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. pepper.
  4. Roast for about an hour until the tomatoes are concentrated and begin to caramelize. Remove from oven, remove stems, and set aside.
  5. In the meantime, cook pasta in a large pot according to package directions (minus a couple minutes of cook time for the pasta to be al dente).
  6. Tear the mozzarella into bite-sized pieces. Set aside.
  7. When pasta is done, drain and add the roasted tomatoes, mozzarella, basil and a healthy drizzle of olive oil.
  8. Serve warm.
