Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 eggplant about 1 pound each (I used globe eggplant, which are the standard variety with dark purple skin you see at most grocery stores)
  • ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 clove minced or grated garlic
  • ½ teaspoon dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • chopped fresh basil or parsley optional, for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat the grill to medium high (400 to 450°F). Make sure the grates are brushed clean.
  2. Trim off the ends of the eggplant and cut crosswise into 1/2-inch rounds. Spread in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet or similar platter you can carry easily to the grill.
  3. In a small bowl or liquid measuring cup, whisk together the oil, garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper. Brush evenly over both sides of the eggplant.
  4. Brush the seasoning evenly over the eggplant.
  5. Flip the eggplant and brush the seasoning evenly over the other side.
  6. Grill the eggplant for 8 to 10 minutes with the lid closed, flipping it 5 minutes into the cook time. It should have nice grill marks on both sides. Transfer to a platter. Serve hot with a sprinkle of fresh herbs and additional salt to taste.

Notes

  • TO STORE: Refrigerate leftover grilled eggplant slices for up to 5 days.
  • TO REHEAT: Rewarm leftovers in a 350°F oven until heated through, about 5 minutes.
  • TO FREEZE: I do not recommend freezing grilled eggplant, as it will become mushy once thawed.
