Even though this recipe is called Grilled Tomatoes with Cumin Butter, you can substitute any herbs or spices you would like for the cumin. These tomatoes are great on grilled burgers but would go equally well with steak, pork, chicken or fish. You could even substitute some basil for the cumin and then use the grilled tomatoes while making Insalata Caprese. So I hope you will give this recipe a try and if you find other ways to use it, please share with us here. Enjoy!
Grilled Tomatoes with Cumin Butter
Ingredients
- 2 1/2 Tbsp butter
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 large, firm ripe tomatoes, sliced about 3/4-inch thick
Directions
- Melt the butter in a small saucepan; remove from heat and stir in the cumin and salt and pepper.
- Brush the tomato slices on one side with half of the cumin butter. Place them, brushed side down, on a well-oiled grid and grill for 2 to 3 minutes or until very lightly browned on one side.
- Brush the tops of the tomatoes with the remaining cumin butter. Turn and grill for 2 to 3 minutes more or until very lightly browned, but not falling apart. If the tomatoes brown too quickly, move them to the edge of the grill to finish cooking.
