How to Make Baked Tomatoes Sicilian Style
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Lightly grease a shallow baking dish just large enough to hold the tomatoes.
- Cut the tomatoes in half and remove the seeds. Turn the tomato halves upside down on several layers of paper towels and drain for about 10 minutes.
- Arrange the drained tomato halves, cut side up, in the prepared baking dish.
- In a small bowl, mix together 1/2 cup breadcrumbs, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Fill each tomato half with the breadcrumb mixture.
- Season generously with coarse sea salt.
- Drizzle each tomato half with 1 teaspoon of olive oil.
- Bake, uncovered, for 1 hour and 30 minutes, or until the tops are nicely browned and caramelized. (Cooking time may vary depending on the size and ripeness of the tomatoes).
- Let cool slightly before serving, or serve at room temperature. For best results, do not refrigerate.
