Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Spread the cherry tomatoes and zucchini on a rimmed baking sheet, drizzle with 1 tbsp of the olive oil, and season with 1/4 tsp of the salt. Roast for 20–25 minutes, until the tomatoes are blistered and the zucchini is tender and golden at the edges.

While the vegetables roast, heat the remaining 2 tbsp olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat until shimmering. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
