Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Roma tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 cloves Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh basil
- 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese
Instructions
Preheat your broiler to high and position the oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source.
Slice the Roma tomatoes in half lengthwise and scoop out some of the seeds with a spoon to make a small cavity.
Mince the garlic cloves and fresh basil finely. Set aside.
In a small mixing bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, minced basil, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
Drizzle the cut side of the tomato halves with olive oil, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Spoon the breadcrumb mixture into the cavities of the tomatoes, pressing gently to adhere the topping.
Place the stuffed tomato halves on a baking sheet lined with foil or parchment paper, cut side up.
Broil the tomatoes for 6-8 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and crispy. Keep a close eye to avoid burning.
Remove the tomatoes from the broiler and allow them to cool slightly before serving. Garnish with additional basil if desired.
