BALSAMIC GRILLED EGGPLANT



Balsamic Grilled Eggplant image

A mixture of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and garlic makes for a very flavorful grilled eggplant. It's an easy recipe - mix the simple marinade, brush the eggplant, and grill.

Provided by Vered DeLeeuw

Categories     Side Dish

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 large eggplant (unpeeled (about 1 lb.)*)
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1/2 teaspoon Diamond Crystal kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill or a grill pan, over medium-high heat. I like to use a dual-contact electric grill when making this recipe.
  • Trim the eggplant edges and slice crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick rounds. You should get about 12 rounds out of a large eggplant.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Brush the eggplant rounds with the mixture, on both sides. Set aside any remaining sauce.
  • Grill the eggplant slices until golden brown and fork-tender, about 5 minutes on each side. In my dual-contact electric grill, I grill 5 minutes on one side, then 2 minutes on the second side.
  • Brush the eggplant slices with the remaining marinade and serve.
