Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Baked Fried Green Tomato Parmesan.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and get two baking sheets ready by lining them with parchment paper.
Step 2
In a small bowl, whisk your eggs until they’re nice and smooth, creating a lovely base for your green tomatoes.
Step 3
Next, pour some bread crumbs into a shallow dish, setting the stage for a delightful crunch.
Step 4
Now, take each slice of green tomato and dip it into the egg mixture, ensuring it’s well-coated, then roll it in the bread crumbs for that perfect crispy layer.
Step 5
Arrange these beautifully coated slices in a single layer on your prepared baking sheets, making sure they have a little space to breathe.
Step 6
Pop them into the oven and bake for about 5 minutes on each side, or until they turn a gorgeous golden brown.
Step 7
While those tomatoes are baking, grab a 9x13-inch baking dish and pour in 3 cups of spaghetti sauce, spreading it evenly to cover the bottom.
Step 8
Now, it’s time to build your masterpiece! Layer half of the baked tomato slices on top of the sauce, followed by half of the mozzarella and half of the Parmesan cheese.
Step 9
Repeat this delicious layering process with the remaining spaghetti sauce, tomato slices, mozzarella, and Parmesan, creating a beautiful tower of flavor.
Step 10
To finish it off, sprinkle some dried basil on top for that aromatic touch.
Step 11
Slide your dish back into the oven and let it bake for an additional 35 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown, filling your kitchen with an irresistible aroma.
Step 12
Enjoy the delightful combination of flavors and textures in this comforting dish!.
