Southern Fried Green Tomatoes

Set up three separate bowls: one with the flour, paprika, lemon pepper, and cayenne; one with beaten eggs mixed with Tabasco sauce; and one with cornmeal.

Season the tomato slices with kosher salt and ground black pepper.

Heat oil in a deep fry pan to 350°F and prepare a baking tray lined with paper towels and a wire rack on top.

Dredge each tomato slice in the seasoned flour, shaking off excess, then dip in the egg mixture, shaking off excess, and finally coat with cornmeal, gently pressing to adhere.

Fry four tomato slices at a time in the hot oil until golden brown on both sides, about 2–3 minutes per side, then transfer to the prepared wire rack; repeat with the remaining slices.

Serve warm with a remoulade sauce of your choice.
