Marinated Eggplant
Serves 4 as a side dish
- 2-3 medium eggplants
- Olive oil for brushing
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
- 2 tablespoons chopped parsley
- 1 tablespoon chopped basil
- 3 tablespoons lemon juice
- 4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 clove garlic, crushed
- Red pepper flakes, to taste
Directions
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Trim the ends off the eggplants. Cut into thirds widthwise and then into wedges. Line the wedges on a large baking sheet, skin side down, and brush generously with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and roast for 15-20 minutes or until they are soft and golden brown on the edges.
Meanwhile, whisk together the herbs, pepper flakes, lemon juice, olive oil, and crushed garlic in a large bowl.
While the eggplants are still hot, add them to the marinade and toss to coat completely.
Allow to marinate for 2 hours before serving.
