Southern Fried Green Tomato Parmesan
Ingredients
  • 2 eggs
  • 4 cups Italian seasoned bread crumbs
  • 10 green tomatoes, sliced 1/2-inch thick
  • 6 cups spaghetti sauce, divided
  • 1 (16 ounce) package shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to the desired temperature of 350 degrees Fahrenheit or 175 degrees Celsius. Prepare two baking trays by covering them with parchment paper for an easy cleanup.
2
Take a small container and gently mix the eggs until they become smooth and creamy. Place the bread crumbs in another shallow dish.
3
Next, dip each tomato slice into the egg mixture and then coat it evenly with the bread crumbs. Arrange these coated tomatoes in a single layer on your prepared baking trays.
4
Place the trays in the preheated oven and bake until the tomatoes turn golden brown, approximately 5 minutes per side.
5
In a large serving dish measuring 9x13 inches, pour in three cups of your favorite spaghetti sauce. Create a layer by adding tomato slices on top.
6
Then, add half of the mozzarella cheese and half of the Parmesan cheese to create a new layer. Repeat this process by adding another layer of spaghetti sauce, followed by tomato slices, mozzarella cheese, and finally Parmesan cheese.
7
Finish the dish with a sprinkle of fresh basil leaves on top. Place it in the preheated oven and bake until golden brown, approximately 35 minutes.
