Ingredients

  • 1 large tomato, washed and halved
  • 1/4 cup Panko® breadcrumbs
  • 1 tbsp. Parmesan cheese, grated
  • 1 large clove garlic, pressed
  • 2 large basil leaves, chiffonade tips & tricks
  • 1/2 tbsp. fresh chives, chopped
  • 1 tbsp. flat or curly leaf parsley, chopped tips & tricks
  • freshly ground black pepper, to taste (I always use mixed peppercorns)
  • 1 small pinch ground Himalayan sea salt
  • 1 1/2 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil tips & tricks
  • cayenne pepper, to taste

Directions

  • Preheat barbecue to 500ºF
  • Cut tomatoes in half; set aside.
  • Mix in a bowl together breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, garlic, basil, chives, parsley, freshly ground black pepper, sea salt and oil.
  • Wrap halved tomatoes in aluminum foil, creating a bowl with a small retaining wall.
  • Spoon on the breadcrumb mixture, covering the entire surface; sprinkle with cayenne pepper.
  • Place wrapped tomatoes on the indirect heat of the grill, close the lid and cook for 4 minutes.
  • If you choose the oven instead, cook them at 350ºF for 12 minutes. Turn the broiler on and cook until the tops are browned.
