This is a twist on Fried Green Tomatoes! I despise tomatoes, but my parents LOVE them. My dad usually grows his own every summer. I have made fried green tomatoes for them on more than one occasion, so I can't wait to try this one for them.
INGREDIENTS:
4 large tomatoes (beefsteak tomatoes preferred)
8 oz cream cheese
1/4 C parsley
1-1/2 tsp fresh basil or 1/2 tsp dried basil
1 garlic clove
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 C flour
1 C panko crumbs
1 egg
1 Tbl milk
3 Tbl butter
3 Tbl olive oil
DIRECTIONS:
1. Cut tomatoes into four thick slices; place on paper towels to drain.
2. Beat cream cheese, parsley, basil, garlic, and salt together well. Spread mixture over 8 tomatoe slices. Top, sandwich style, with remaining tomato slices.
3. Place flour and panko crumbs in separate bowls. Whisk egg and milk in third bowl.
4. Coat top and bottom of each sandwich with flour, then dip into egg, then dip into crumbs.
5. Heat butter and oil in skillet together. Fry tomato sandwiches 3 to 4 minutes on each side, until golden brown. Drain on papertowels before serving.
