Remarks
If you don't have any cherry tomatoes, and this is the season, replace them with classic tomatoes cut into large cubes or slices.

Tomato compote and grilled bacon can be prepared well in advance, even the day before.

For an extra touch of smokiness, add a teaspoon (or more) of smoked paprika at the end of cooking the tomato compote.
Keeping: Enjoy within minutes of removing from the oven.
