Time 25m

Yield 21 slices, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 green tomatoes
2 cups flour
2 tablespoons black pepper
2 tablespoons italian seasoning
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 eggs
1/4 cup milk

Steps:

  • First, cut your tomatoes at 1/8 inch and lay out to dry -- I lay down paper towel and then place tomatoes on a cooling rack and then layer more paper towels on top. THIS STEP IS VERY IMPORTANT!
  • While tomatoes are drying, mix together flour, black pepper, Italian seasoning, and cayenne pepper.
  • Dip tomatoes slices into egg and milk mixture and then coat with flour and seasoning mixture.
  • Place in a hot skillet with oil and fry for about 3 minutes on both sides or until browned.
  • I usually place them back on the cooling rack so they don't get soggy when they are finished.
  • Serve immediately!
