Ingredients

  • 4 ripe, red tomatoes (about 1 3/4 pounds)
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for grill
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper

  1. Cut 1/2 inch off top of tomatoes. Sprinkle cut end of tomatoes with oregano, thyme, lemon juice, oil, salt, and pepper.
  2. Brush a grill or grill pan with oil. Heat to hot. Place tomatoes on the grill, cut side down. Grill until slightly charred, 3 to 5 minutes. Turn and grill until soft and warm throughout, 3 to 5 minutes more. Transfer to a dish, and serve with yogurt on the side.
