Eggplant-Grilled & Marinated

By Fleur de lis

Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon garlic salt
• 1 large eggplant, sliced into 1-inch thick rounds
• 1/4 teaspoon Asian oyster sauce (optional)
• 1 tablespoon dried basil
• 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
• 2 tablespoons olive oil

Preparation

Step 1

Sprinkle garlic salt over both sides of eggplant slices; let sit for 30 minutes to release water.
Place eggplant slices in a large dish; drizzle with fish sauce. Add basil, balsamic vinegar, and olive oil; stir to evenly coat. Marinate for about 15 minutes.
Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
Remove eggplant from marinade and arrange on preheated grill; cook until tender, occasionally basting with marinade, about 5 minutes per side.
