Eggplant Parmesan

Ingredients

  • 2 eggplants cut lengthwise into 1/2" or so steaks
  • 1 - 1 1/2 c Puttanesco or tomato sauce
  • Fresh mozzarella
  • Shaved parmesan
  • Bunch of fresh basil

Instructions

  • Brush each slice of eggplant lightly with vegetable oil.
  • Sprinkle the eggplant pieces with a rub and a bit of salt.
  • Place on bbq and grill on medium heat for a couple minutes a side. Just so they begin to get soft.
  • Place in bottom of foil tray. (I had a couple pieces slightly overlap.)
  • Sprinkle chopped basil over top.
  • Spoon puttanesco sauce over top until each piece is covered.
  • Sprinkle on the shaved parmesan.
  • Cut the mozza into pieces and place a disk or two on each piece of eggplant.
  • Sprinkle with just a tiny bit more fresh basil.
  • For the bbq setup, have 2 zones, one medium hot and one indirect heat side. Place the tray on the indirect heat side for about 20 minutes until the cheese melts and gets nice and gooey!
