1. Mix the dried basil and thyme together and season with pepper.
2. Cover the base of a shallow, ovenproof dish with a third of the tomatoes. Sprinkle a third of the herb mixture and half the onion on top. Repeat, then lay the remaining tomatoes on top. Scatter with the breadcrumbs and the rest of the herbs, and trickle the oil over the top.
