- 6 medium tomatoes
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon pepper
- Peel and cut tomatoes in half horizontally. Squeeze tomatoes lightly to release seeds. Discard seeds and juices. Place tomato halves in a container with a tight-fitting lid. In a small bowl, mix the oil, garlic, lemon juice, oregano, salt and pepper. Pour over tomatoes. Seal lid and invert to thoroughly coat. Refrigerate at least 4 hours or up to 2 days, inverting occasionally to marinate.
