Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces large ripe tomatoes
- 100 grams grated Parmesan cheese
- 50 grams panko breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh basil, chopped
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium heat.
Slice each tomato in half horizontally and remove any seeds with a small spoon, if desired.
In a small bowl, mix together the grated Parmesan cheese, panko breadcrumbs, chopped parsley, chopped basil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.
Drizzle the tomato halves with olive oil, ensuring they are lightly coated.
Spoon the Parmesan mixture evenly over the cut side of each tomato half, pressing it gently to adhere.
Place the tomatoes, cut side up, on the preheated grill or grill pan.
Close the grill lid or cover the grill pan with a lid to retain heat. Cook for 8–10 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the tomatoes are slightly softened.
Carefully remove the tomatoes from the grill and transfer them to a serving plate.
Serve warm as a side dish or appetizer, and enjoy!
