Slice and Bread the Tomatoes
Slice the green tomatoes into 1/4 inch thick slices. Set up a breading station with three bowls: one with flour mixed with salt and pepper, one with beaten eggs, and one with panko breadcrumbs.

Fry the Tomatoes
Dip each tomato slice first in the flour, then in the egg, and finally coat with panko breadcrumbs. In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Fry the breaded tomato slices in batches until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
