Cherry tomatoes are among the sweetest tomatoes. Roasting them concentrates and caramelizes that sweet juicy flavor. For a spring-time dinner, I roasted asparagus right along with cherry tomatoes in the oven to make this roasted cherry tomato and asparagus pasta dinner!

Ingredients

  • 1 pint cherry tomatoes, cut in half
  • 2 cups of 1 inch chopped asparagus (washed and trimmed)
  • 1 TBS olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp salt, divided
  • 8 oz bowtie pasta
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 TBS olive oil or butter
  • 1/3 cup white wine
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp herbs de provence

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425 F.
  2. Cover a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Toss cherry tomatoes with 1/2 TBS olive oil, and asparagus with the other 1/2 TBS olive oil. Spread out the cherry tomatoes while leaving the asparagus close to promote even roasting. Sprinkle with 1/4 tsp salt.
  3. Roast in the preheated oven for 17 minutes, or until starting to caramelize.
  4. Meanwhile, cook pasta according to package directions.
  5. In a skillet, melt butter and add garlic. Cook until the garlic turns golden brown. Mix in white wine and stir well. Mix in remaining 1/4 tsp salt, black pepper, and herbs de provence. Simmer until thick, 5-7 minutes.
  6. Toss pasta with roasted veggies and white wine sauce. Serve.
