Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 9

20 large plum or roma tomatoes - cut in half, lengthwise
3 Tbsp diced onion
4 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil - divided use
4 clove garlic, minced
1 Tbsp fresh sage, chopped
1 Tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped
1/2 tsp lemon zest, grated
1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp fresh cracked black pepper

Steps:

1. Preheat the oven to 375 - 400 degrees F.
2. Toss the halved tomatoes with the chopped onions, 2 Tablespoons of the olive oil and the minced garlic. Spread the seasoned tomatoes, cut side up, in a single layer on a rimmed sheet pan and bake them for 30 to 40 minutes. The tomatoes will have a shriveled appearance and are lightly brown around the edges. After roasting, turn off the oven, and leave the tomatoes in there for an additional 30 minutes, so that they cook in the existing heat.
3. Toss the roasted tomatoes with the remaining 2 Tablespoons olive oil, sage, rosemary, lemon zest, salt and pepper. Chill the tomatoes, with their marinade for at least 8 hours, or overnight to allow flavors to blend.
