Step-by-Step Instructions
- Slice the eggplants into rounds about ¾ inch thick and arrange them in a colander. Sprinkle kosher salt generously over the slices and let sit for 30 minutes.
- After 30 minutes, rinse the salted eggplant slices thoroughly under cold water. Pat them dry gently with a clean towel.
- In a mixing bowl, combine extra virgin olive oil, grated garlic, red wine vinegar, red pepper flakes, and black pepper. Whisk until well blended.
- Add the dried eggplant slices to the bowl with the marinade, ensuring each slice is coated. Let sit for at least 15 minutes.
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat, about 400°F (200°C). Brush the grill grates with additional olive oil to prevent sticking.
- Place the marinated eggplant slices on the grill and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side until tender.
- Remove the grilled marinated eggplant and let rest for a few moments. Serve warm, garnished with fresh herbs.
