Egg in a Hole with Broiled Tomatoes

* 2 slices whole-grain bread
* 4 tsp olive oil
* 2 large eggs
* Kosher salt and black pepper
* 2 medium tomatoes, halved
* 1 Tbsp grated Parmesan

Recipe Preparation
1. Heat broiler. Brush one side of each slice of bread with 1/2 tsp of the oil. Using a round cookie cutter or drinking glass, cut a 2 1/2- to 3-in. hole in the center of each slice of bread, reserving the cutout pieces.

2. Heat 2 tsp of the remaining oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Place the bread and cutouts, oiled side up, in skillet and cook until undersides are crisp, 1 to 2 minutes. Flip; crack 1 egg into each hole. Season with 1/4 tsp each salt and pepper, and cook, covered, to desired doneness, 2 to 3 minutes for runny yolks.

3. Meanwhile, place the tomatoes cut-side up on a broilerproof baking sheet. Drizzle with the remaining tsp oil and sprinkle with 1/8 tsp each salt and pepper. Broil until tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve with the eggs and sprinkle with the Parmesan.
