Roasted Okra and Cherry Tomatoes Recipe

  • 30 fresh okra, cut into 1-inch pieces, or more to taste
  • 6 cherry tomatoes, quartered, or more as desired
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, or as needed
  • kosher salt to taste
  • 4 slices cooked bacon, crumbled
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese, or more to taste
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. Combine okra and tomatoes in a bowl. Drizzle enough olive oil over okra mixture to coat; toss and season with salt. Mix bacon and garlic into okra mixture and transfer to a baking dish.
  3. Bake in the preheated oven until okra is tender, about 40 minutes. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese over okra mixture and bake until cheese melts, about 5 minutes more.
