Fried Green Tomato Blt Recipe

Fried Green Tomato BLT Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Tomatoes

   Slice the green tomatoes into 1/4 inch thick slices. Sprinkle with salt and let sit for about 10 minutes to draw out moisture.

2. 2

   Dredge the Tomatoes

   Set up a dredging station with three bowls: one with flour mixed with salt and pepper, one with beaten eggs, and one with cornmeal. Dip each tomato slice first in the flour, then in the egg, and finally in the cornmeal to coat.

3. 3

   Fry the Tomatoes

   Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry the coated tomato slices in batches until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.

4. 4

   Cook the Bacon

   In another skillet, cook the bacon until crispy. Drain on paper towels.

5. 5

   Toast the Bread

   Toast the sourdough slices until golden brown.

6. 6

   Assemble the BLT

   Spread sun-dried tomato pesto on one side of each toasted sourdough slice. Layer with lettuce, fried green tomatoes, bacon, and goat cheese. Top with another slice of bread, pesto side down.

7. 7

   Serve

   Cut the sandwiches in half and serve immediately.
