Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 400°F. Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with 1 tbsp olive oil.

  2. Step 2

    Heat remaining 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add 1 sliced onion and cook until soft and golden, about 8 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Add 2 minced garlic cloves and 1 tsp dried oregano; cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

    Transfer onion mixture to the baking dish. Add 1.5 lb cherry tomatoes and 0.5 cup pitted olives; toss to combine.

  5. Step 5

    Sprinkle 1 cup shredded mozzarella evenly over the top. Bake until tomatoes are bursting and cheese is bubbly and golden, about 20-25 minutes.
