Stuffed tomatoes with chopped parsley and breadcrumbs make for a delicious and flavor side dish or appetizer. Here's a simple recipe to create this delightful dish:


Ingredients:

  • 4 large tomatoes
  • 1 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs (you can use fresh or dried)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
  • 2-3 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt and black pepper to taste


Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Slice off the tops of the tomatoes and gently scoop out the seeds and pulp using a spoon or a melon baller, being careful not to pierce the tomato flesh. You want to create hollow tomato shells.
  3. In a bowl, combine the chopped parsley, breadcrumbs, minced garlic, and grated Parmesan cheese if you're using it. Mix the ingredients together.
  4. Season the breadcrumb mixture with a pinch of salt and a dash of black pepper, and drizzle with 2-3 tablespoons of olive oil. Mix well to ensure the mixture is evenly coated and slightly moist.
  5. Stuff each hollowed-out tomato with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing it down gently to pack it in.
  6. Place the stuffed tomatoes in a baking dish, and if you have the tomato tops, place them back on top of the stuffed tomatoes.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until the tomatoes are tender and the breadcrumb topping is golden brown and crispy.
  8. Once done, remove the stuffed tomatoes from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
  9. Serve the stuffed tomatoes as a side dish or as an appetizer. They pair well with a variety of main courses and make for a flavorful and visually appealing addition to your meal.


These stuffed tomatoes with parsley and breadcrumbs offer a wonderful combination of flavors and textures, with the freshness of parsley and the crunch of the breadcrumb. They are great way to make use of ripe summer tomatoes and add a touch of elegance to your table.
