Instructions
- Heat 2 tablespoons (30 ml, adjust as needed for different serving sizes) of olive oil in a Dutch oven or large skillet over medium heat. Add the eggplant and season lightly with salt and pepper. Sauté, stirring regularly, until the eggplant becomes tender and develops a light golden color, about 10 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- Add another 1 tablespoon (15 ml, adjusting as needed for different serving sizes) of olive oil to the same pan and return it to medium heat. Stir in the zucchini, bell pepper, onion, and garlic, then cook until the vegetables are tender and lightly browned, about 10 minutes.
- Return the eggplant to the pan and add the diced tomatoes, basil, oregano, salt, and pepper, along with the thyme and red pepper flakes if using. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 10 minutes, or until the liquid has slightly reduced and the vegetables are tender. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed—adding more salt for balance, extra herbs for depth, or red pepper flakes for a touch of heat.
- Serve warm on its own or alongside pasta, polenta, or crusty bread. For extra flavor, finish with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of fresh basil, if desired.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3–4 days, or freeze for up to 1 month.
