Be sure to store tomatoes at room temperature -- refrigerating them can make them mealy. They'll continue ripening as they sit on the counter.

Time 1h5m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 vine-ripened tomatoes
Kosher salt
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
1 clove garlic, minced
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh basil
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Slice the tomatoes in half horizontally and scoop out the pulp and seeds. Salt the insides and let rest upside down on a rack set on a baking sheet to extract the juices, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, mix the breadcrumbs, garlic, basil, 1/4 cup parmesan, the olive oil and a few grinds of pepper. Stuff the tomatoes with the filling and sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup parmesan.
  • Transfer the tomatoes to a clean baking sheet and bake until they are tender and the tops are golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes. Tent with foil if the breadcrumbs are browning too quickly.
