Grilled Eggplant

Grilled Eggplant

This is an amazingly easy recipe and ever so savory!

Ingredients

• 4 Japanese eggplants sliced lengthwise
• Extra Virgin Olive Oil
• Salt
• Pepper
• Garlic Powder

Instructions

1. Rinse and dry the eggplants.
2. Slice them into 1/2 inch thick pieces.
3. Combine eggplant slices, extra virgin olive oil, salt, pepper and garlic powder in a large shallow baking dish and mix well. Let sit at room temperature for at least 1 hour before grilling.
4. Heat the grill to about medium-high (about 400°F to 450°F).
5. When the grill is ready, place the eggplant slices directly over the coals and grill until golden-brown grill marks form. About 3 to 4 minutes.
6. Turn the eggplant and grill until tender and well marked on the second side, 3 to 4 minutes more. The interior should be grayish and soft rather than white and hard.
7. Serve warm or at room temperature.
