Fried Green Tomatillos with Pimento Cheese Dip
Dip these crunchy-on-the-outside, tender-on-the-inside bites of tangy tomatillo into the nostalgic dip of the past: pimento cheese!
Ingredients:
1/2 C canola oil
12 tomatillos, husks removed, rinsed, and sliced
Salt and pepper to taste
2 eggs, beaten
2 C breadcrumbs
1 C pimento cheese spread
Micro greens to garnish
Instructions:
Heat oil in a large skillet.
Dip each tomatillo slice into the egg wash then breadcrumbs to form a coating. Add to the hot skillet, cooking until browned on each side, approximately one to two minutes per side. Drain on a wire rack.
To serve, place pimento cheese in the center of a platter, surrounded by fried tomatillo slices. Garnish with micro greens.
