Best Grilled Vegetable Stack With Goat Cheese Stuffing Recipes

GRILLED VEGETABLE STACK WITH GOAT CHEESE STUFFING

Steps:

• Make the goat cheese stuffing by mixing the goat cheese, garlic clove, shallot and chives together well. Goat cheese is very creamy when it is at room temperature and it should allow you to mix this cheese stuffing so that it is fairly smooth. Put in the fridge until needed again.
• Thinly slice the eggplant and zucchini lengthwise. Discard the outer strip on both sides. You should have 8 strips of eggplant and 8 strips of zucchini.
• Place the eggplant and zucchini on a grill set to high. Grill for about 4-6 minutes per side. They should get grill marks and soften to the point where they are bendable. Remove from the grill and let cool.
• To make the stacks, lay 2 pieces of zucchini together on a plate. Place a 1 1/2 inch square piece of roasted red pepper in the middle of the 2 zucchini pieces.
• Put about 2 tbsp of goat cheese stuffing on top of the red pepper.
• Take the ends of the zucchini and fold it over the cheese. Press down lightly, and they should stay.
• Take 2 pieces of eggplant and lay on top of the zucchini, but going the opposite way. Fold them down and tuck under the stack.
• Serve at room temperature.

GRILLED VEGETABLE, HERB AND GOAT CHEESE SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Place a grill pan over medium-high heat or preheat a gas or charcoal grill.
• In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, garlic, sun-dried tomatoes, basil, tarragon, thyme, salt, and pepper. Place 2 tablespoons of the mixture in a medium bowl. Add the zucchini and eggplant and toss until coated. Place the vegetables on the grill pan or grill and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side until tender. While the vegetables are cooking, spread the olive oil mixture on the baguette halves. Using a spatula spread the goat cheese over the olive oil mixture. Place the cooked vegetables on the bottom half of the baguette. Arrange the spinach on top of the vegetables. Place the top half of the baguette over the filling.
• To serve, cut the baguette into 4 sandwiches. Serve immediately or wrap in parchment paper and refrigerate for up to 2 hours.

GRILLED CHICKEN AND VEGETABLE STACKS

Steps:

• Preheat a char-grill (broiler) or barbecue over high heat. Place the chicken, capsicums, eggplant, zucchinis, oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper in a bowl and toss to coat. Cook the chicken for 3-4 minutes on the grill or barbecue before adding the capsicums, eggplant and zucchinis and cooking until the chicken is golden and cooked through and the vegetables tender. To serve, place the chicken, vegetables and rocket in a stack on plates and serve topped with the combined pesto and mayonnaise.

VEGETABLE STACKS

Steps:

• Preheat BBQ and set on LOW. Brush vegetables with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and grill slowly until tender, turning once. They will only need about 3-4 minutes per side. Transfer the vegetables to a tray, arranging them in a single layer, and cover tightly with plastic wrap. You can stack layers of the vegetables on top of each other with a layer of plastic wrap between; just be sure the vegetables have cooled first. The vegetables may be grilled a day in advance, and refrigerated after cooking. Bring the vegetables back to room temp before proceeding.
• Stir together the ricotta, thyme, salt and pepper in a small bowl.
• Place one slice of eggplant on a lightly oiled baking sheet or foil pan. Spread one tablespoon of the ricotta mixture over the eggplant. Cover with 2 slices of zucchini, 1 slice of onion, 1 slice of mozzarella, 1 slice of tomato, 2 slices of zucchini, and 1 slice of onion. Spread 1 tablespoon of the ricotta mixture over the onion, and top with another slice of eggplant. Repeat this procedure with the remaining vegetables to make 5 more stacks.
• Insert a wooden skewer through the centre of each stack to create a hole from top to bottom. Remove the bottom leaves from each rosemary sprig, leaving one inch of leaves on the top. Insert 1 sprig into the centre hole in each stack and return to the BBQ. Heat for about 5 minutes on Low or until mozzarella is melted and vegetables are warmed through.

GRILLED EGGPLANT STACKS WITH GOAT CHEESE, TOMATO AND BASIL SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Cut the eggplant into ½" thick rounds. Lightly season them with salt on both sides and let sit on a paper towel for 30 minutes to let water to come out of the eggplant.
• Brush or drizzle olive oil on top of each slice and grill them for 2 -3 minutes each side until cooked.
• Blend the basil leaves with 4 tablespoons olive oil, 2 garlic cloves, lemon juice, and 1 teaspoon salt in a food processor or blender until smooth.
• Cut the tomatoes crosswise to 1/4" thick rounds.
• On an oiled baking pan or using parchment paper, arrange 4 eggplant rounds side by side. Spread 1/2 tablespoon of the basil-garlic mixture on top of each one, then generously sprinkle the cheese crumbs. Top each with tomato rings. Add another layer of eggplant, basil spread, cheese and tomato rounds and top with the rest of the crumbled feta. Make as many layers as you can. Usually, 1 large eggplant will make 4, 3 layer stacks.
• Bake for approximately 20-25 minutes until the tomatoes are wilted and the cheese is soft and melted.
• Enjoy!
