"Fried" Tomatoes

  • Number of Servings: 8
Ingredients
* 1/2 cup low-fat buttermilk * About 1/2 teaspoon hot sauce (10 drops) * 1 egg white * 1 cup cornmeal * 1/4 teaspoon sea salt * 4 large green (or red) tomatoes, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices * Nonstick cooking spray
Directions
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil.

Combine the buttermilk, hot sauce and egg white in a pie dish. Mix the cornmeal and salt in another pie dish. Dip the tomato slices into the buttermilk mixture, and then into the cornmeal, gently turning to coat.

Spray a large nonstick skillet with nonstick cooking spray over medium-high heat. Add half the tomato slices in a single layer and cook until browned on both sides, 3 to 4 minutes.

Transfer the slices to the baking sheet and bake until the tomatoes are golden brown on both sides, about 8 minutes. Wipe the skillet clean and repeat with remaining vegetable slices. Serve hot.
