Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Place a baking sheet on the middle rack.
  2. In a large, oven-safe skillet, heat olive oil and unsalted butter over medium heat until melted.
  3. Add halved cherry tomatoes to the skillet, cook for about 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  4. Sprinkle in sea salt, black pepper, and balsamic vinegar, mashing the tomatoes lightly.
  5. Cook until the juices reduce to a syrupy consistency, about 5-7 minutes.
  6. Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface and prick it with a fork.
  7. Drape the puff pastry over the tomato mixture in the skillet, tucking the edges down.
  8. Bake for 25 minutes or until the pastry is golden brown and puffs beautifully.
  9. Cool for about 10 minutes, then run a knife around the edges before flipping onto a serving plate.
  10. Garnish with fresh herbs and serve immediately.

Notes

Chill the pastry before handling to maintain the flaky texture. Use a non-stick skillet for easy inversion. Adjust seasoning before covering with pastry to ensure a balanced flavor.
