Gratinated Tomatoes

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Wash the parsley, pick the leaves, and pat them dry with paper towels.
  2. Peel the garlic clove.
  3. Place the parsley and garlic on a cutting board and finely chop together using a mezzaluna or chef's knife.
  4. Transfer the chopped mixture to a plate, add the breadcrumbs, and mix well to combine.
  5. Wash the tomatoes, cut them in half lengthwise, coat the cut sides with the seasoned breadcrumbs, and arrange them in a baking dish greased with olive oil.
  6. Drizzle the tomatoes with a thin stream of olive oil, season with a pinch of salt and a grind of pepper, and bake in a preheated oven at 200°C (400°F) for 15 minutes. Continue cooking for a few additional minutes if needed until golden brown on top.
