Tomato Gratin

List of Ingredients




2 large tomatoes (preferably beefsteak), sliced 1/2 inch thick
2 Tbs finely chopped fresh basil
1-2 garlic cloves, minced
2 Tbs extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/4 cups coarse fresh bread crumbs from a baguette
1/3-1/2 cup fresh grated Parmesan


Recipe



Preheat oven to 500 degrees.

Arrange tomato slices, slightly overlapping, in an oiled 9-inch gratin dish or shallow casserole. Season with salt and pepper and sprinkle with basil. Cook garlic in oil in a small skillet over moderate heat, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Remove from heat and stir in bread crumbs, cheese, and salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle over tomatoes. Bake in middle of oven until crumbs are golden, about 15 minutes.
