Preparation

Step 1

Preheat grill to medium-high. Brush both sides of eggplant with olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Grill eggplant until tender and slightly charred on both sides, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Top each round with mozzarella and mini pepperoni. Keep the eggplant on the grill to allow the cheese melt, about 30 seconds more. Remove eggplant from grill. Top with Parmesan and basil and serve.
