Steps:
- Wash and dry the tomatoes.
- Cut a thin slice at the top and the lower part of each tomato, so that you will not have any rounded slices.
- Slice the tomatoes, about 0.25 cm/ ¼ inch thick.Combine the olive oil, grated garlic cloves, chili flakes, some salt and pepper in a bowl.
- Add the tomato slices and stir well to coat. If you have the time, you can marinate the tomatoes for 15 to 30 minutes, but it is not mandatory.
- Heat a grill pan on medium heat.
- Add the tomato slices to the pan. If there is some leftover marinade in the bowl, reserve it.
- Grill the tomatoes for about 3 minutes on one side. Flip using tongs and grill for further 2-3 minutes on the other side. They should have nice char marks and become softer, but not be too soft or mushy. They should still hold their shape.
- Place the grilled tomatoes on a serving plate and pour the reserved marinade on top.
- Finely chop the red onion. Place it in a small bowl.
- Add the Greek yogurt, mustard, 1 teaspoon honey, vinegar, paprika powder, salt and pepper, and most of the chives. Stir well.
- Adjust the taste with more honey, if necessary. Sprinkle the remaining chives on top.
- Serve the grilled green tomatoes with the yogurt sauce and some fresh basil leaves.
