I like to add a slice or two of juicy ripe tomato and the most delicious sauce. How can you resist?

    Yes, these are tomatoes plucked from the vine before they have matured. Although there are some heirloom varieties that remain green even when they are ripe. You want to make sure you are choosing a firm tomato.

     

    Four process step photos. First one, green tomato slice placed in a white bowl with flour. Secone one, flour dipped tomato jnow placed in a bowl of whicked eggs. Third one, egg dipped tomato now placed in a bowl with cornmeal. Fourth one, coated tomatoes placed in ahot skillet to fry.Helpful Tips For Making Fried Green Tomato BLT Sandwich

    • I like to use a thick cut smoky bacon.
    • I use my 12 inch cast iron skillet. But any skillet will do for this.
    • Add a little cayenne pepper for a little kick!
    • Make sure you slice the tomatoes all the same width. (I recommend 1/4 inch thick)
    • I like to add a ripe red tomato also. Because I LOVE them so much!
    • I prefer cornmeal coating but you could use panko instead if you like. Either way, it's delicious!
    • Dredge all your tomatoes in the coating and place them on a baking sheet. It just makes the frying process easier

    Ingredients
      

    • 12 slices thick cut bacon
    • 3 large green tomatoes
    • 1 cup vegetable or canola oil
    • ¼ cup all purpose flour
    • ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
    • 2 eggs whisked
    • 1/3 cup cornmeal
    • ½ teaspoon salt
    • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
    • 8 slices bread
    • Lettuce
    • 2 Ripe tomatoes if desired

    For The Sauce

    • 1 cup mayonnaise
    • 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce

    Instructions
     

    • Heat a skillet on medium-high heat and cook bacon until desired crispiness. Remove to a paper towel to drain.
    • Slice the green tomatoes about ¼ inch thickness.
    • In a large bowl whisk the eggs until combined. In another bowl add the flour and cayenne pepper and mix. In a third bowl add the cornmeal, salt, and pepper, and mix.
    • Dunk each green tomato into the flour mixture, then dredge in the egg mixture, followed by the cornmeal. Place tomatoes on a baking sheet or plate. Repeat until all are coated.
    • Heat oil in a skillet (I use cast iron)on medium heat. Cooking in batches add a few tomatoes in the hot oil cook 3-4 minutes then flip and cook 2-3 more minutes. Remove to a paper towel or cooling rack.

    • Toast bread and assemble the sandwich. Enjoy!
