Instructions

  1. Reserve some parsley leaves for garnish and finely chop the rest of it. Combine all ingredients except for the eggplant in a large bowl. Whisk well and set marinade aside.
  2. Wash eggplant and trim stem end off. Slice lengthwise into long, thin strips, about ¼" thick each. Add aubergine slices to the marinade and toss well. Let sit to marinate for at least 15 minutes or up to 4 hours.
  3. Preheat your grill to medium high heat. Once preheated, place eggplant slices on the hot grill in a single layer. (No additional oil is needed.) Grill until there are dark grill marks and the eggplant is starting to soften. Flip and repeat on the other side. Approximately 4-5 minutes per side.Remove from heat and serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

  • Eggplant, aka aubergine, antipasti will last well in the fridge for up to 5 days. Remove from fridge and bring to room temperature or warm gently in the grill or oven before serving.
  • Leftovers are great as a sandwich filling or dinner side dish but they do not freeze well.
