Ingredients
- 2 bulbs garlic
- ½ cup olive oil
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt divided
- 3 sprigs fresh thyme
- 1 (28oz) can Diced Tomatoes
- 2 balls burrata (4 ounces)
- freshly ground black pepper to taste
- basil leaves chiffonade, for garnish
- crostini rubbed with garlic, for serving
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F.
- Peel all the garlic cloves and add them to a small pot or ramekin with olive oil, ½ teaspoon of salt, and thyme sprigs. Cover and roast for about 50 minutes until the garlic is soft and fragrant. Remove from oven and set aside.
- Increase the oven temperature to 450°F.
- Lightly drain the diced tomatoes and transfer them to a skillet. Pour half of the garlic confit (including some of the garlic oil) over the tomatoes, reserving the rest of the garlic oil for future recipes. Season with ½ teaspoon salt and pepper to taste. Roast for 15-20 minutes until the tomatoes are nicely caramelized.
- Once roasted, top the tomatoes with fresh burrata, black pepper and basil chiffonade. Serve with garlic-rubbed crostini and enjoy!
