Categories     side-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon canola oil
1-inch piece fresh ginger, roughly chopped
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 teaspoon red chili flakes
1/2 cup hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
1 medium eggplant, ends trimmed and cut into 1/2-inch thick slices, lengthwise
6 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons freshly chopped cilantro leaves

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the ginger, garlic and red chili flakes and cook until soft, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the hoisin, vinegar and soy sauce until combined and then strain, reserving the sauce.
  • Heat grill to high.
  • Brush eggplant slices on both sides with the oil and season with salt and pepper. Place the slices on the grill and grill until golden brown and slighty charred, 4 to 5 minutes. Brush with some of the glaze, turn over and continue grilling just until cooked through, brushing with more of the glaze, 3 to 4 minutes longer. Remove from the grill and brush with the remaining glaze. Transfer to a platter and sprinkle with the cilantro.

Categories     Stew

Time 8h5m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

1/2 cup hoisin sauce
1 large eggplant
2 frozen skinless chicken breasts

Steps:

  • Place ingredients in crock pot.
  • Cook in crock pot for 8 hours.

Tips:

  • To select the best eggplant, choose ones that are firm and heavy for their size.
  • If you don't have time to salt the eggplant, you can skip this step. However, salting the eggplant will help to remove some of the bitterness and make it more tender.
  • Be careful not to overcrowd the pan when cooking the eggplant. If the pan is too crowded, the eggplant will not cook evenly.
  • Cook the eggplant over medium-high heat until it is browned and tender. This will take about 5-7 minutes per side.
  • To make the hoisin sauce, simply combine all of the ingredients in a small bowl and whisk until well blended.
  • Serve the hoisin eggplant with rice, noodles, or your favorite vegetables.

Conclusion:

Hoisin eggplant is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick and healthy meal. The eggplant is tender and flavorful, and the hoisin sauce is sweet and savory. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
