Another quick recipe for weeknight dinner that takes 20 min to make. Minimum ingredients, maximum flavor!
What you need for 4 ppl:
2 lbs mixed size cherry or campari tomatoes on the vine
4 lare garlic cloves, crushed (add 6 if you are a garlic lover like me)
1/4 c. plus 1 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1/4 tsp crushed red pepper
3 chicken breasts, boneless
1 tsp dried tarragon, or 1 1/2 Tbsp fresh and finely chopped.
Active cooking time: 20 min
Heat oven to 500F. Heat grill on med-high.
Cut largest tomatoes in half. Toss them with 1/4 c. olive oil, garlic, red pepper and salt.
Line a large baking dish with foil and spread tomatoes mixture evenly.default
Roast on the upper level in the oven for 10 min. Stir, and roast for another 10 min.
Tomatoes should be soft and burst. If they are too dry, add some hot water.
Coat chicken with remaining 1 Tbsp. olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Transfer to grill and grill on medium-high for 3 mint per side. Then reduce the grill to medium and grill another 3 min per side.
Remove tomatoes from the oven and gently toss with tarragon with a wooden spoon.
Plate the cooked chicken and spoon tomatoes and juices on top of chicken. I served my on a pillow of spring mix salad, but you can pick any side you want from rice to spaghetti to grill vegetables.
Bon Appetit!
