Ingredients

• 6 pieces Roma tomatoes
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
• 0.5 cup Panko breadcrumbs
• 0.333 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon Paprika

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with olive oil.

Step 2

Cut the Roma tomatoes in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds using a spoon. Place the tomato halves cut side up on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix together the Dijon mustard, olive oil, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and paprika until well combined.

Step 4

Brush each tomato half generously with the Dijon mustard mixture, ensuring the cut surface is fully coated.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, combine the panko breadcrumbs, grated Parmesan cheese, and chopped parsley. Sprinkle this breadcrumb mixture evenly over each tomato half.

Step 6

Transfer the baking sheet to the preheated oven and bake for 20–25 minutes, or until the tomatoes are tender and the breadcrumb topping is golden brown and crispy.

Step 7

Remove from the oven and allow the tomatoes to cool for a few minutes before serving.

Step 8

Garnish with additional parsley if desired and enjoy as a side dish or appetizer.
