Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Roll out a sheet of puff pastry on a lightly floured surface to fit a tart pan.
Place the pastry in the tart pan, pressing it into the edges, and trim any excess. In a skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sauté 1 diced onion until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add 1 pound of ground beef to the skillet, breaking it apart with a spatula, and cook until browned, about 7-10 minutes.
Season the beef with 1 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, and 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika for a depth of flavor.
While the beef cooks, prepare the tomato confit by combining 2 cups of halved cherry tomatoes, 2 cloves of minced garlic, 1 tablespoon of fresh thyme leaves, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a bowl.
Spread the cooked ground beef evenly over the pastry crust, then layer the tomato confit on top. Bake the tart in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the tomatoes are blistered.
Allow the tart to cool for 5 minutes before slicing. Serve warm, garnished with fresh basil leaves for a pop of color and flavor.
