Broiled Mozzarella Tomatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat broiler.
• Wash and core tomatoes. Cut a small piece off the bottoms, so that all tomato halves will sit level with cut-side up.
• Place tomato halves (cut sides up) on a lightly greased baking pan.
• In a small bowl, combine last 5 ingredients and mix well. Sprinkle this mixture evenly on the tomato halves.
• Place under broiler for about 3 or 4 minutes or until cheese is bubbly and to desired browness.

Steps:

• Place an oven rack 6 inches from the top of the oven, preheat the broiler, and and arrange tomato slices on a foil-lined baking sheet.
• Combine olive oil, basil, oregano, garlic, salt, and pepper in a bowl and brush onto the tops of the tomatoes.
• Combine bread crumbs, mozzarella cheese, and Parmesan cheese in a small bowl and sprinkle the mixture over the tomatoes.
• Place under the broiler until topping starts to brown, 3 to 4 minutes, checking frequently to avoid burning.
• Transfer tomatoes to a plate, drizzle with balsamic vinegar, and serve.

Steps:

• Halve tomatoes and scoop out insides leaving 1/2-inch thick shell.
• Chop pulp and set aside.
• Combine breadcrumbs, butter, basil, salt and pepper. Stir in cheese and tomato pulp.
• Fill tomato halves with cheesy breadcrumb.
• Spray cooking spray lightly on the bottom of aluminum pan.
• Place tomato halves in disposable pan and wrap top loosely with foil.
• If grilling, set over grill for at least 10 minutes.
• If oven baking, bake at 350° for 15 minutes and broil until cheese is browned and bubbly.
• Uncover and serve on pan with large sprigs of parsley or curly parsley.

Steps:

• Stir together oil, vinegar, garlic, basil, oregano, salt and pepper flakes in medium-size shallow dish.
• Add cheese slices, overlapping if necessary, and turning to coat completely with oil.
• Cover and refrigerate at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat broiler.
• Make 3 equally spaced vertical cuts in each tomato, starting from bottom and not cutting all the way through tomato (so tomato can "fan").
• Insert a cheese slice into each cut.
• Place tomatoes in shallow flameproof baking dish.
• Brush with any remaining marinade.
• Broil tomatoes 6 inches from heat until cheese is melted and lightly browned and tomatoes are heated through, about 6 to 8 minutes.
• Pour any pan juices over tomatoes before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat broiler.
• Cut tomatoes in half and arrange them on a lightly oiled baking dish. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Cut garlic in thin slivers. Stud tomato halves with garlic.
• Place tomatoes under broiler and broil 5 minutes or until garlic starts to burn. Discard garlic and serve.

Steps:

• Turn on your broiler. A toaster oven with broiling ability is great or a George Foreman Grill.
• Remove the cores of the tomatoes then cut them in half (horizontally).
• Place cut side up: then rub Olive oil over cut side (use fingertip).
• Sprinkle bread crumbs on next.
• Sprinkle Herb seasonings on and salt/pepper.
• Then place 1/4 teaspoon of unsalted butter on each half.
• Broil until tomato is hot completely.
• ^May add cheese or mushrooms when nearly done, but don't get them to close to burners in oven.
