Time 35m

Yield 6 to 8 stuffed tomatoes

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 ounces bacon, chopped
3 tablespoons panko breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon freshly grated Parmesan
1 teaspoon mayonnaise
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
Pinch kosher salt
1/2 heart of romaine lettuce, shredded
6 to 8 cocktail or Campari tomatoes

Steps:

  • Place the bacon in a small skillet; heat over medium heat until beginning to sizzle. Reduce the heat to medium low; cook until crisp and golden brown, about 8 minutes. With a slotted spoon, remove the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate, leaving the fat in the pan.
  • Add the breadcrumbs to the hot bacon fat; cook, stirring often, until lightly toasted and crunchy, about 3 minutes. Remove the breadcrumbs to a separate paper towel-lined plate, spread evenly, and then sprinkle with the Parmesan to melt slightly.
  • With a rubber spatula, mix together the mayonnaise, lemon juice and salt in a bowl. Add the shredded romaine; toss well to coat.
  • Cut a small amount off the bottom of each tomato to create a flat surface to sit on. Then cut off the tops as well. Run a small knife around the inside of the tomatoes to loosen the flesh. Using a 1/2-teaspoon measuring spoon, scoop out and discard the insides of each tomato.
  • Divide the bacon among the tomatoes, pushing it down slightly. Top with some of the romaine, followed by the bacon-parmesan breadcrumbs. Serve at room temperature.
