Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 teaspoons minced fresh rosemary leaves
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium eggplant (1 pound)
2 medium tomatoes (3/4 pound)
1/4 pound feta cheese, crumbled

Steps:

  • Prepare the grill so that the temperature on 1 side is hot and the other is just medium-low (you should be able to hold your hand 5 inches about the grill for about 5 seconds).
  • Whisk together the vinegar, rosemary, and salt and pepper, to taste. Slowly whisk in the olive oil.
  • Peel the eggplant and cut crosswise into 1/3-inch slices (12 slices total). Cut the tomatoes crosswise into 1/3-inch slices (8 slices total). Put the vegetables on a tray and brush generously with the dressing.
  • On the grill's hot side, grill the eggplant until just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side, brushing with more of the dressing. Grill the tomato slices for 1 minute per side. (The vegetables should retain their shape.) Transfer the vegetables to a tray as they finish grilling.
  • Arrange 4 stacks of vegetables on the cooler side of the grill: start with the eggplant, add a slice of tomato, then add some crumbled cheese. Repeat. Cover the grill and cook the stacks or 3 to 5 more minutes or until the feta melts. Serve immediately.

I grilled the vegetables over a charcoal fire and they had a wonderful smoky flavor.

I used a grill pan instead of an outdoor grill and the results were still great.

I've never been a big fan of eggplant, but this recipe changed my mind. The eggplant was grilled to perfection and had a smoky flavor that paired well with the tomatoes and feta.
