- Preheat your oven to 400°F. Place the cherry tomatoes in an oven-safe baking dish. Pour the olive oil over the tomatoes and season with salt and pepper. Toss everything until it is well combined.
- Place the block of feta cheese in the middle of the baking dish, surrounded by the cherry tomatoes. Flip the feta a couple times to coat it with the olive oil and seasoning.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes, until the cherry tomatoes burst and the feta cheese melts.
- While the tomatoes and feta are baking, cook the pasta in a pot of salted water according to package instructions until it is al dente. Drain the pasta, reserving 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid in case you want to add it later.
- Immediately add the minced garlic and fresh basil leaves to the hot tomatoes and melted feta in the baking dish and toss everything to combine.
- Transfer the cooked pasta to the baking dish and toss to combine all ingredients. Garnish with more fresh basil and serve the pasta warm.
