Gratineed Tomatoes with Asiago and Fresh Herbs

Extra Virgin Olive Oil
3 medium beefsteak tomatoes; (sliced 1/4 inch thick)
kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup panko bread crumbs
1/4 cup finely grated Asiago cheese; (or you can substitute Parmesan)
1 TBL fresh flat leaf parsley
1 tsp coarsely chopped fresh thyme

Position a rack 6 inches from the broiler element and heat the broiler on high.

Lightly oil a 10×12-inch (or similar size) broiler-safe baking dish.

Arrange the tomato slices in the baking dish in a single, slightly overlapping layer.

Sprinkle with 1/4 tsp salt.

In a small bowl, mix together the breadcrumbs, Asiago, parsley, thyme, 2 tsp. olive oil, a pinch of salt, and 1/8 tsp. pepper.

Sprinkle the breadcrumb mixture evenly over the tomatoes.

Broil until the breadcrumbs are a deep golden-brown, 2 to 3 minutes.

Drizzle with more olive oil and serve immediately.
