Roasted Okra and Cherry Tomatoes image

I guarantee you this okra is not slimy! I remembered a tip that I heard on a cooking show about vinegar when I received some fresh okra and needed to come up with a new and different way to cook it that was healthy and still delicious. This recipe fits the bill and it is so super easy you can throw it together in a flash!

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 c fresh okra, sliced into 1/2 inch pieces
2 c cherry tomatoes, sliced in half
1/4 c tarragon vinegar
3-4 Tbsp olive oil
1 Tbsp minced onion, dried
1 & 1/2 tsp herbs de provence
2 tsp sesame seeds
to taste salt/pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Pour vinegar over sliced raw okra and toss to coat, set aside for at least five minutes. Cut cherry tomatoes in half lengthwise.
  • 2. Spray a cookie sheet with butter flavored no-stick spray. Put all ingredients in a bowl and stir until evenly distributed and coated with oil.
  • 3. Spread in a single layer on the prepared cookie sheet and Bake at 400 degrees for 15 minutes or until okra is just tender. Put in a bowl and add salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately or this can be served at room temperature or refrigerated. It is fantastic at any temperature!
