4 green tomatoes (be sure these are unripe tomatoes, not the variety of tomatoes that are green when ripe)

kosher salt

4 oz. goat cheese, (room temperature)

1 tsp fresh thyme leaves

½ tsp black pepper

步骤

Fried Green Tomatoes

In a heavy-bottomed skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat until shimmering. Use enough oil that the skillet is coated in a thin layer.

Slice the green tomatoes to ¼-inch thickness. Season with salt and pepper.

Place the eggs and panko breadcrumbs into two separate bowls. Beat the eggs.

Coat each slice of tomato with egg, allowing the excess to drip off, then coat in panko breadcrumbs. Be sure to evenly coat in panko.

Carefully place the tomato slices in the skillet, working in batches to avoid over-crowding the pan. Fry the tomatoes for about 2-3 minutes until golden brown on one side, then flip, cooking another 2-3 minutes. When the tomatoes are evenly browned, remove to a wire cooling rack or paper towel-lined plate. Sprinkle lightly with salt on one side.

Serve warm, with the herbed goat cheese and chives.

Herbed Goat Cheese

In a small bowl, stir together the goat cheese, thyme, black pepper, and rosemary until smooth.
