Marinate sliced green tomatoes (for the amount in this recipe, 15 to 20 tomatoes are needed sliced 1/4 inch thick) for 20 minutes. Coat well with breading. [Editor’s note: We recommend repeating this process to keep the tomatoes from falling apart.] Fry at 350 degrees for 3 minutes or until golden brown.

To serve, place 3 to 4 slices on a plate.
