Ingredients

• 4 large ripe tomatoes
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
• 1 teaspoon honey
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill or BBQ to medium heat.

Step 2

Rinse the tomatoes and cut them in half horizontally.

Step 3

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, honey, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper to make the marinade.

Step 4

Brush the cut sides of the tomatoes generously with the marinade, saving a small amount for later.

Step 5

Place the tomatoes cut-side down on the preheated grill. Cook for 4-5 minutes, or until grill marks appear.

Step 6

Carefully flip the tomatoes using tongs or a spatula. Brush the tops with the remaining marinade and cook an additional 4-5 minutes, until they are tender but not falling apart.

Step 7

Remove the tomatoes from the grill and let them rest for a minute or two.

Step 8

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve immediately as a side dish or a flavorful addition to other dishes.
