Excellent tangy sauce and a great way to use up those fall green tomatoes. You can add cooked chicken into the sauce to make it heartier if you like.
Ingredients:
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
12 medium green tomatoes, cut into 1/4 slices
kosher salt
ground black pepper
6 garlic cloves, minced
24 fresh basil leaves
1 lb linguine
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, freshly grated
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 300°F.
2. Spray a large shallow baking dish with cooking oil. Lay the tomatoes in the dish and season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with the olive. Bake uncovered until tomatoes soften somewhat, about 25 minutes.
3. In a mini food processor, chop the garlic and basil together. Sprinkle the garlic/basil on top of the tomatoes. Cover with foil and bake until soft and lightly carmelized, another 25 minutes. Remove from oven and place in a food processor or blender. Pulse a few times, but leave the sauce chunky. Put in sauce pan to reheat and add cooked chicken if desired.
4. Serve over hot cooked pasta and top with freshly grated Parmesan.
