Step 1

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.

Step 2

Place the tomato halves in a large mixing bowl. Add minced garlic, salt, pepper, fresh thyme, and spices. Drizzle a generous amount, about 1/4 cup or more, quality extra virgin olive. Toss to coat.

Step 3

Transfer the tomatoes to a baking sheet with a rim. Spread the tomatoes in one single layer, flesh side up.

Step 4

Roast in your heated oven for 30 to 35 minutes or until the tomatoes have collapsed to your desired doneness.

Step 5

Remove from heat. If you are planning to serve it soon, feel free to garnish with more fresh thyme and a few sprinkles of feta cheese. Enjoy warm or at room temperature.
