GRILLED PARMESAN TOMATOES

We grill almost everything in the warmer season even vegetables! I always make this recipe using big juicy tomatoes from the garden, these are so good! Since these tomatoes are best served at room temperature or chilled they are great to make ahead and serve to company. Make certain to use the biggest juiciest tomatoes you can find for this, plum tomatoes just won't do! Since I really don't measure when I make these, the amounts listed are only estimated, you can really just use as much as desired to taste, but only use a small amount of honey. For 7 large tomatoes (14 halves) I find that one extra large garlic bulb will give you enough thin slices of garlic to cover 14 tomato halves. Of course you can use more garlic and use as many tomatoes as you like!

Time 45m

Yield 14 tomato halves

Number Of Ingredients 7

7 large tomatoes (sliced in half)
fresh garlic clove, thinly sliced (use as many as desired)
3 teaspoons honey (optional)
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
3 tablespoons olive oil
salt and pepper (I use seasoned salt for this)
parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Set your barbecue to about 300°F or to medium-low heat.
  • Place the tomato halves on a greased baking sheet cut-side up.
  • Divide the garlic slices on top of each tomato (if you have any garlic slices left over just sprinkle around the tomato halves).
  • Drizzle with just a very SMALL amount of honey (if using).
  • Then drizzle with balsamic vinegar and then olive oil.
  • Season with salt and pepper (I use seasoned salt for this).
  • Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.
  • Place the tray of tomatoes on the grill.
  • Roast until tomatoes are very soft and lightly charred (about 25-30 minutes; the cooking time will vary depending on the size of your tomatoes and the barbecue heat.
  • Remove the tomatoes from the tray and place on a serving platter.
  • Drizzle with more olive oil.
  • These are best if served chilled or at room temperature.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup sliced oyster, shiitake, or portobello mushrooms (domestic or imported)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon minced shallots
1/4 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary
1/4 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
4 perfectly ripe yellow (or red) medium-size beefsteak tomatoes
1/4 cup fresh grated Parmesan cheese
1 handful mixed baby greens
Sweet Shallot Vinaigrette

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, combine the mushrooms with the olive oil, shallots, rosemary, and thyme; let sit for about 10 minutes.
  • Light a fire in a charcoal or gas grill. Using tongs, remove the mushrooms from the marinade and grill until slightly softened and browned, about 2 minutes on each side. Set them aside. (You can also complete this step ahead of time, refrigerate the mushrooms, and then bring them to room temperature when you're ready to stuff the tomatoes.)
  • Meanwhile, prepare the tomatoes so that you can use them to serve your salad in. Preheat the oven to 325° F. Using a sharp knife, slice the tops off the tomatoes either flat or in a zigzag pattern; you need them later so don't discard them. Using a melon baller or spoon, scoop out the insides. (You may want to save the insides for a sauce or another salad.) Set aside. Place the tomatoes into a 1-inch baking pan (you may have to adjust the bottoms-cutting carefully and only slightly-if they can't sit upright), with their tops. Bake until the skins start to wrinkle, about 15 minutes.
  • When the tomatoes are finished, remove the tops and stuff with alternate layers of the mushroom mixture and the cheese. Place the tomatoes back into the oven (without the tops) just until the cheese starts to melt, about 5 minutes.
  • Top each tomato with a bit of the mixed baby greens and a drizzle of the vinaigrette. Cover with the tomato tops, and serve.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, firm tomatoes for grilling. This will help them hold their shape and prevent them from becoming mushy.
  • Slice the tomatoes into 1/2-inch thick slices. This will ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Toss the tomato slices with olive oil, salt, and pepper before grilling. This will help them caramelize and develop a delicious flavor.
  • Grill the tomato slices over medium heat for 5-7 minutes per side, or until they are charred and tender.
  • Top the grilled tomato slices with grated Parmesan cheese and fresh herbs before serving. This will add a delicious umami flavor and a pop of color.

Conclusion:

Grilled Parmesan tomatoes are a delicious and easy appetizer or side dish that can be enjoyed all summer long. They are perfect for a backyard barbecue, a picnic, or a simple weeknight meal. With their smoky flavor and cheesy topping, these tomatoes are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So fire up your grill and get ready to enjoy this delicious grilled Parmesan tomato recipe!
