Instructions
- Pour oil into a pan to ½" deep and preheat to 365°F.
- Season both sides of tomato slices with salt and pepper.
- In a shallow dish combine flour and garlic powder. Pour the buttermilk into a second shallow dish and in a third dish mix together the paprika and cornmeal.
- Dredge tomato slices in flour, shaking off any excess. Dip in buttermilk, followed by the cornmeal mixture. Repeat with remaining slices.
- When oil is hot, add tomatoes to the pan, a few at a time (don't crowd) cooking 2-3 minutes per side until golden and crisp.
- Drain on paper towels. Season with additional salt.
Notes
- No buttermilk? No problem, simply add 1 tbsp of white vinegar or lemon juice to a liquid measuring cup. Fill to ¾ cup with whole milk, stir, and let rest for 5 minutes. This can be used in place of buttermilk in most recipes.
- Nutritional information does not include all of the canola oil since it's for frying purposes only.
