Easy Broiled Tomatoes - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 large plum tomatoes, halved lengthwise (about 12 ounces)
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
fresh ground black pepper
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons chopped fresh herbs, such as thyme, rosemary, oregano or 3 tablespoons marjoram
1 tablespoon freshly grated parmesan cheese

Preparation

Season tomatoes with the salt and place seed-side down on a rack or paper towel to drain for about 30 minutes. Blot dry with a paper towel.
Position an oven rack in the upper part of the oven and preheat the broiler.
Line a broiler pan with foil.
Place the tomato halves on the prepared pan, seed-side up, season with pepper to taste, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle herbs over the top.
Broil until hot and the tops begin to brown, about 8 minutes.
Top with cheese and broil until cheese is melted, about 1 minute.
