                     Oven "Fried" Green Tomatoes
                          with Spicy Dipping Sauce

 
I made these last year and posted the recipe. Except this time I did not use a wire rack to back them. I just laid them out on a foil lined baking sheet spray with non-stick spray. These were the best yet. I think do to the fact that I used stone ground cornmeal that I got from the Amish grocery in Casey County, Kentucky. These tomatoes were also "heirloom" type tomatoes and were not acidic at all! I also made a spicy dipping sauce from fat free sour cream. I will post that recipe a bit later! So here you go!

First step (lightly dust in mixture)
1/2 cup cornmeal for dusting
1/4 teaspoon of black pepper

Second step (egg wash)
1 med egg beaten or 1/4 cup egg beater

Third step (dredge in coating mixture)
1/2 cup panko
3 Tablespoons of cornmeal
1 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Place on wire rack that has baking sheet beneath it and has been sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Bake at 375 degrees for 40 minutes until tomatoes are browned and give slightly to the touch. Enjoy!
