Tomato Tart
- Prepared unsweetened pie dough for an 8-inch tart pan or 4-by-13-inch rectangular tart pan
- 2 1/2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for drizzling
- 2 onions, thinly sliced
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 1 cup goat cheese
- 1 pound tomatoes (any combination of red, yellow, heirloom, cherry), sliced if large or halved if small
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta or Stilton cheese
- 1/4 cup pitted calamata olives (optional)
- 8 sliced basil leaves
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Roll out the dough to about 1/4 inch thick and line the tart pan with it, pressing excess dough against the sides to make a thicker edge.
- Prick bottom and sides with a fork.
- Line with parchment paper, fill with pie weights or dried beans and bake for 20 minutes.
- Remove weights and parchment and bake another 7 or 8 minutes, until crust is golden brown.
- Let cool.
- Heat the olive oil over medium heat and add the onions.
- Season with salt and pepper and cook until the onions are lightly browned.
- Spread the onions over bottom of the crust and dot with goat cheese.
- Arrange tomatoes on top in a mosaic pattern.
- Dot with the feta or Stilton and push olives into the top.
- Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper and drizzle with olive oil.
- Preheat broiler.
- Cover the edge of the crust with foil to protect it from burning and broil until tart is lightly browned and bubbly, 4 to 5 minutes.
- Let cool to room temperature and garnish with basil.
