Fried Green Tomatoes

You can typically find green tomatoes only in the summer and fall during the tomato growing season. This recipe is a great way to enjoy the last of the season!

Fried Green Tomatoes

2 green tomatoes, sliced 1/2 inch thin
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 cup breadcrumbs seasoned with salt, paprika, and black pepper
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 beaten egg

In a frying pan, heat the olive oil. Meanwhile, dip the tomato slices into egg, then breadcrumbs, and finally, grated cheese. Place into frying pan, in batches if necessary, flipping when the side facing the pan surface is finished. Remove when they are golden brown on both sides (careful not to burn).

Serves approximately 2.
