Ingredients

  • 4 large ripe tomatoes
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
  • 1 tablespoon fresh basil
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme
  • 2 large garlic cloves
  • 1 cup breadcrumbs
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Cut the tomatoes in half crosswise and use a spoon to carefully scoop out the seeds and pulp. Lightly sprinkle the hollowed-out tomatoes with a pinch of salt, then turn them upside down on a plate to drain while you prepare the filling.

Step 3

Finely chop the parsley, basil, and thyme. Mince the garlic cloves.

Step 4

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, parsley, basil, thyme, and garlic. Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and black pepper, then mix well until the breadcrumbs are lightly moistened.

Step 5

Place the tomato halves upright in a baking dish, cut side up. Fill each tomato half generously with the herbed breadcrumb mixture, pressing it gently to form a mound on top of each tomato.

Step 6

Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the tops of the stuffed tomatoes.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, or until the tomatoes are tender and the breadcrumb topping is golden brown.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. These can be served warm or at room temperature as a side dish or appetizer.
