Equipment
- Cutting board and knife For slicing the eggplant into even rounds or strips.
- Basting brush Apply the marinade evenly onto the eggplant slices.
- Grill pan or outdoor grill To cook the eggplant and achieve the perfect charred flavor.
- Tongs For flipping the eggplant slices while grilling.
- Serving plate To present the grilled eggplant beautifully.
Ingredients
- 2 medium Eggplant, about 400gms raw
- 3/4 tsp Garlic powder
- 1/2 tbsp Italian seasoning
- 6 tbsp Olive oil
- 1/4 tsp Black pepper
- 3/4 tsp Sea salt
Instructions
- Preheat your cast iron grill pan or grill on medium flame.
- Slice the eggplant in circles (around 1/2 inch thick). I recommend removing the leafy end only after slicing; it gives a better grip while cutting.
- Now, take a small bowl to mix olive oil, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Brush around half of this mixture onto eggplant slices. And, add sea salt and black pepper to the remaining mixture.
- Flip the slices and apply the mixture to the other side.
- Now, place eggplant slices on a grill pan or a grill in a single layer. If you are using a grill pan, you can spray it with some cooking oil and cook the slices without a lid. But if you are using a grill, you need to close its lid. I would suggest grilling eggplant for 3–5 minutes per side until it's tender, charred, and a little brownish.
