Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Grill the Eggplant

    Preheat a charcoal grill. Slice the eggplants lengthwise into 1/2 inch thick slices. Brush both sides with olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Grill the eggplant slices for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until they are tender and have grill marks.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Dressing

    While the eggplant is grilling, mix together the minced garlic, lemon juice, dried oregano, black pepper, and remaining olive oil in a bowl. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Chop the Vegetables

    Once the eggplant is done grilling, remove it from the grill and let it cool slightly. Meanwhile, chop the parsley, red bell pepper, and red onion into bite-sized pieces.

  4. 4

    Combine Ingredients

    In a large bowl, combine the grilled eggplant, chopped parsley, red bell pepper, and red onion. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss gently to combine.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve immediately or let it sit for about 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
