Fried Green Tomatoes and Lotsa Mozzarella!
 
 
Ooey, gooey mozzarella melting between two crispy, crunchy fried green tomatoes. Unbelievably finger-lickin good!
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
  • 2 medium or large green tomatoes, cut in ¼" slices (8 slices)
  • Fresh cracked pepper and kosher salt
  • ½ cup all purpose flour
  • 2 eggs
  • ½ cup Panko bread crumbs
  • ½ cup plain bread crumbs
  • 4 slices of Mozzarella cheese
  • oil for frying
Instructions
  1. Season both sides of the sliced tomatoes with salt and pepper. Place on paper towels to drain.
  2. Place flour in one bowl. In another bowl beat eggs. In a third bowl combine the Panko and plain bread crumbs.
  3. Dip sliced tomatoes into flour, then the beaten eggs, then dredge in the bread crumb mixture until coated. Shake off excess.
  4. Pour enough oil in a frying pan to coat the bottom. Heat over medium heat. Sprinkle a couple bread crumbs into the oil, if it sizzles it's ready. Fry the tomatoes until light golden brown on each side. About 2 minutes per side.
  5. Place 1 slice of mozzarella on top of 4 of the tomatoes. Place remaining 4 tomatoes on top. Heat in microwave for 30 to 45 seconds until the cheese is melted.
  6. Serve hot.
