This is an amazingly easy recipe and ever so savory! Ingredients: 4 Japanese eggplants sliced lengthwise Extra Virgin Olive Oil Salt Pepper Garlic Powder Directions: Rinse and dry the eggplants. Slice them into 1/2 inch thick pieces. Combine eggplant slices, extra virgin olive oil, salt, pepper and garlic powder in a large shallow baking dish and mix well. Let sit at room temperature for at least 1 hour before grilling. Heat the grill to about medium-high (about 400°F to 450°F). When the grill is ready, place the eggplant slices directly over the coals and grill until golden-brown grill marks form. About 3 to 4 minutes. Turn the eggplant and grill until tender and well marked on the second side, 3 to 4 minutes more. The interior should be grayish and soft rather than white and hard. Serve warm or at room temperature.
