Provided by Melissa Clark

Categories     quick, appetizer

Time 20m

Yield 2 to 3 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 to 3 large firm tomatoes, or 4 to 6 small firm ones
Kosher salt
3 tablespoons mascarpone
3 tablespoons goat cheese, at room temperature
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
2 anchovies, finely chopped
1/4 cup panko or other coarse bread crumbs
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 500 degrees. If necessary, slice a very thin layer off bottoms of tomatoes so they will stand upright. Core tomatoes, and carve them out, stopping about about 3/4 inch from bottom and sides. (Do not remove too much, or tomato will collapse when baked.) Season inside of each tomato with salt. In a small bowl, stir together mascarpone and goat cheese.
  • To prepare topping, melt butter with oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic and anchovies, and cook, stirring, 30 seconds. Stir in bread crumbs, and sauté 2 minutes more. Season with pepper.
  • Fill each hollow with mascarpone mixture. Top generously with bread crumbs. Transfer tomatoes to a baking sheet, and bake until they are slightly blistered and the tops are golden, about 10 minutes.

  • If the goat cheese is too firm, soften it by microwaving it for a few seconds or letting it sit at room temperature for a while.
  • To prevent the filling from becoming too dry, add a little bit of olive oil or milk.
  • If you don't have any fresh oregano, you can use 1/2 teaspoon of dried oregano.
  • Serve the stuffed tomatoes immediately, or store them in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
