Cheddar Broiled Tomatoes Recipes

Steps:

• Adjust an oven rack to the highest position and preheat the oven to 500 degrees F.
• In a large pan over medium-high heat, warm the oil. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the onion and chile, spread them out in an even layer in the pan, and cook until the onion becomes translucent and starts to lightly char, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Increase the heat to high and add the tomatoes, using the back of a spoon to lightly crush them. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes break down into a chunky sauce, 5 to 6 minutes, then add the salt.
• Put the cooked rice in an 8-inch square (or similar size) baking dish, then fold in the tomato sauce. (You can also do the folding in a separate bowl and then transfer the rice to the baking dish, if you doubt your ability to not spill rice and sauce everywhere.) Evenly distribute the grated cheese over the top.
• Switch the oven to broil and place the baking dish on the top oven rack. Broil for about 3 minutes, until the top bubbles and turns golden brown. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Mix cheese, green pepper, Worcestershire, mustard, mayonnaise, onion and pepper.
• Place sliced tomatoes on toasted bread and divide cheese mixture evenly among them. Gently press cheese mixture onto tomatoes with the back of a spoon until tomatoes are completely covered.
• Broil until bubbling and golden brown.

Steps:

• Adjust an oven rack to the highest position and heat the oven to 500 degrees.
• In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the oil over medium-high. When the oil begins to shimmer, add the onion and chile, spread them out in an even layer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion becomes translucent and starts to lightly char, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Increase the heat to high and add the tomatoes, using the back of a wooden spoon to lightly crush them. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes break down into a chunky sauce, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the salt and remove from heat.
• Stir in the cooked rice and transfer to an 8-inch square (or similar size) baking dish. Sprinkle the grated cheese on top in an even layer.
• Switch the oven to broil and place the baking dish on the oven rack closest to the broiler. Broil until the top bubbles and turns golden brown, about 3 minutes. Serve immediately.

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:

• Heat a grill on medium-high heat.
• Toss the cherry tomatoes, slab bacon, onions and bread cubes separately with a bit of oil, salt and pepper, and thread them on their own skewers so that they can cook at their own rate. You will have multiple skewers of each.
• Grill the skewers over medium-high heat until lightly charred; keep warm while you make the fondue.
• Shred the Cheddar and toss with 2 teaspoons of the cornstarch. Separately, shred the Gruyere and toss with the remaining 4 teaspoons cornstarch.
• In a medium heatproof saucepan, heat the butter over medium heat. (You can easily cook this over a campfire or on a camp grill as well.) When the butter melts, add the garlic and let it sizzle for 30 seconds. Add the white wine and bring to a simmer. Add the Gruyere and whisk until smooth. Add the Cheddar and whisk until smooth and no lumps of cheese remain. Heat until the cheese bubbles slightly at the edges. Remove from the heat and stir in the sherry, lots of black pepper and the nutmeg.
• Serve with the skewers of tomatoes, onions, bacon and bread for dipping.

Steps:

• Heat broiler.
• Cut thin slice from bottom of each tomato half; discard. Place tomatoes on rack of broiler pan; sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Combine bread crumbs, cheese and butter; spoon over tomatoes. Sprinkle with paprika.
• Broil, 4 inches from heat, 4 min. or until cheese is melted.

Steps:

• Bring 4 cups of water and salt to a boil in a medium pot over high heat. Stirring constantly, add grits in a slow, steady stream. Lower heat to maintain a rapid simmer and cook, stirring, until water is absorbed and grits are smooth, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in butter and 1 1/2 cups cheddar. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Preheat broiler. Divide grits among six small, shallow, ovenproof bowls. Sprinkle evenly with bacon and top with a tomato slice. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup cheese. Transfer bowls to a rimmed baking sheet and broil until cheese melts and is bubbling, about 1 minute. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat broiler.
• Cut thin slice from bottom of each tomato half; discard.
• Place tomatoes on rack of broiler pan; sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Mix bread crumbs, cheese and butter until well blended; spoon evenly over tomatoes.
• Sprinkle with paprika.
• Broil, 3 to 5 inches from heat, 5 minutes or until cheese is melted.

Steps:

• Preheat broiler. Arrange tomatoes in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with 3 tablespoons oil, and season with salt and pepper. Broil until tomatoes are soft, about 5 minutes.
• Melt butter with remaining tablespoon oil. Brush over cut sides of bread. Broil until top edges are just golden.
• Arrange tomatoes over bread, slightly overlapping. Top with cheese. Place on baking sheet; broil until cheese has melted and is bubbling, 1 to 2 minutes.
