Instructions
  1. Heat clean oil in a deep-fryer to 350 F.
  2. Season tomato slices on both sides with salt and pepper and set aside.
  3. In a shallow dish, mix together the flour and garlic powder. In another shallow dish, beat eggs and milk. In a third shallow dish, mix panko with cayenne, paprika and parsley.
  4. Dredge tomatoes through the flour, then the eggs, and then through the bread crumbs. Add only a few pieces to the fryer at a time, so they can cook evenly, about 2 to 3 minutes. Drain on a rack with brown paper or paper towels underneath, and serve with marinara sauce or Buttermilk Sauce.
Buttermilk Sauce
  1. In a small saucepan over medium heat, mix together the apple cider and brown sugar. Bring to a low boil, and allow reducing until thick and syrupy. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
  2. In a medium mixing bowl combine the buttermilk, mayonnaise, adobo peppers with chipotle, lime juice and whisk well. Add in the scallions and the apple cider mixture. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve with Fried Green Tomatoes.
