Grilled Tomatoes Provencale from Celebrity Equinox
Recipe courtesy of Celebrity Cruise Lines
Food is available 24/7 on a cruise ship. On Celebrity Equinox, the Oceanview Café is the place to get fresh vegetables, flavorful fruit and main dishes too numerous to count. (It’s also great for that late night, 1 a.m. pizza fix after dancing in the night club, Quazar) …
Grilled Tomatoes Provencale is a special favorite, filled with flavor, color and … easy enough for a novice chef to make!
Ingredients
- 5 tomatoes, halved
- 2 ounces chopped garlic
- 1 ounce minced onions
- 1 ounce chopped thyme
- 1 ounce chopped oregano
- 1 ounce chopped rosemary
- 2 ounces chopped parsley
- 5t olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
(cooking note: 1 ounce is equal to two Tablespoons of ingredients)
Select 5 fresh red tomatoes about the same size, wash and slice them in half. Quickly sear them on a grill to gain grill marks on flesh side of tomato. (1 or 2 minutes). Set aside on cooking tray.
In a pot, lightly sauté the chopped garlic and add all herbs except parsley.
Top the tomatoes with the mix, salt and black pepper. Flash for 2 minutes in a broiler.
Remove from oven, spread with the chopped parsley and drizzle with olive oil. The grilled Provencal tomatoes are ready to be served. If you wish, you can add some breadcrumbs to the top of the tomatoes.
