Best 5 Panko Fried Green Tomatoes Recipes

EASY CRISPY FRIED GREEN TOMATOES WITH PANKO AND PARMESAN

Steps:

• Slice tomatoes into quarter-inch rounds. Prepare two bowls, beat the eggs lightly in one shallow bowl and mix the cheese, breadcrumbs and salt and pepper to taste in the other shallow dish.
• In a large non-stick pan, heat the oil to medium-high heat. When the heated oil has reached the appropriate temperature, reduce the heat to medium low. Next, quickly dip tomato slices into the egg being sure to dip both sides completely then transfer into the parmesan panko mixture.
• Place the sliced tomatoes into the hot oil in a single layer being careful to adjust the heat if the oil splatters. Fry each slice until browned and crispy before flipping, about 3-4 minutes. Be sure to monitor the tomato slices so they don't burn.
• Once the slices have a crispy coating and are browned, remove the tomato slices from the oil and place on a paper towel lined plate or wire rack. Arrange on a platter, topped with sliced fresh mozzarella, chopped fresh basil and drizzled with balsamic glaze.

BAKED FRIED GREEN TOMATOES

Steps:

• For the tomatoes: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Line 2 sheet pans with parchment paper.
• In a large flat bowl or pie plate, whisk together the flour, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and 1/2 teaspoon of the Cajun seasoning. Put the breadcrumbs into a second pie plate and season with the remaining 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning. Pour the buttermilk into a third pie plate. Pat the tomato slices dry with a paper towel. Dredge them first in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess, then in the buttermilk, and then finally in the panko, patting to coat completely. Place onto the lined sheet pans, spaced about 1 inch apart. Spray the tops lightly with nonstick spray.
• Bake for about 15 minutes, then flip the tomatoes, spray the tops lightly with nonstick spray, rotate the pans and bake until golden brown, an additional 15 minutes.
• For the Cajun-spiced aioli: Meanwhile, sprinkle the minced garlic with salt and use the back of a knife to press it into a paste. Add the garlic and egg yolk to a stainless steel bowl along with the lemon juice and Dijon mustard; whisk to combine. Combine the oils in a container with a spout that will allow for easy controlled pouring. While whisking constantly, slowly add the oil in a slow steady stream (see Cook's Note). Stir in the Cajun seasoning and add salt to taste.
• Serve the tomatoes on a platter with a bowl of the Cajun-spiced aioli.

Coat in the panko mixture and then place on a plate. Repeat with the remaining tomato slices. Working in batches, fry the tomatoes until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side. Drain on a wire rack set in a sheet tray and sprinkle with salt while still hot. Serve warm with Spicy Ranch Dressing.
