Fried Green Tomatoes

I don't usually cook a lot of fried foods. But who can resist fried green tomatoes? Am I right?

Just sit back, fry 'em up and devour!!

Fried Green Tomatoes

2 green tomatoes (got ours from the Charleston farmers market!)
1 cup flour
1 tbls. Cajun seasoning
1/2 cup Panko breadcrumbs
1/3 cup corn meal
1 large egg
1/2 cup milk (I used 2% organic)
about 1/3 cup vegetable oil (or your oil of preference for frying)
a little salt and pepper

Heat the oil in a cast iron skillet over medium high heat. Cut the tomatoes into thick slices (about 1/4" thickness).


Set up your assembly station by combining the ingredients in three shallow bowls. First bowl: flour and Cajun seasoning Second bowl: egg and milk Third bowl: breadcrumbs and corn meal


Dip the tomato in each bowl and fry in the pan on each side until golden brown. Remove and drain on a paper towel lined plate. Serve warm.




We ate these with grilled chicken and a fresh corn salsa.

I am telling you these are delicious!!! Go make them now!
