Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Slice eggplant into 1/2-inch slices, then into 1-inch strips.

In a bowl, combine bread crumbs, cheese, salt, and pepper. Place oil in a shallow dish; add eggplant strips and toss to coat.

Then toss strips in bread crumb mixture and place on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet.

Bake about 20 minutes, then turn and bake an additional 5 minutes, until golden brown.

Notes:
Serve with sour cream and chives, if desired.
