Crispy Heirloom Tomatoes

4 medium heirloom tomatoes
¼ cup all-purpose flour
2 eggs
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
½ cup panko Breadcrumbs
¼ teaspoon Italian seasoning
Salt & Pepper
Peanut or vegetable oil for frying

Directions:
Slice tomatoes into round ½” slices. Pat with paper towel to absorb some juice & set on plate. On large plate, sprinkle flour & generous pinch or salt, stirring with a fork to combine. In a mixing bowl, whisk eggs. In another mixing bowl, combine parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, Italian seasoning & a pinch each salt & pepper.
Dredge tomatoes in flour, then egg, then breadcrumb mixture & set on plate. Add oil to a skillet, enough to generously cover bottom & heat to meduim-high. Fry tomatoes in batches, 2 minutes on each side, until crispy & golden brown.
