Steps

1Preheat the oven to 425°.
2Add tomatoes, chilis (or chili flakes), and herbs to a baking dish. Drizzle with oil, then season with salt and pepper.
3Roast the tomatoes until the edges begin to char, about 35-45 minutes. Set aside to cool briefly. Discard the herb stems. Allow the tomatoes to cool down slightly before mixing with the butter.
4Food process the roasted tomatoes and butter together until smooth, adjust seasonings to taste, and then serve!
5Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days. Freeze small portions of the butter for up to 3-6 months to preserve the butter for longer.
