Oven-Fried Eggplant Cutlets image

I can't remember where I found this recipe, but it is the only way my family likes eggplant...even the grandkids like it, and that's a miracle! I suggest adding different types of cheeses to the breading if you like because the cheese gives a lot of flavor and crispiness.Shredded cheddar or mozzarella cheese also works well. I also usually double the recipe for a large eggplant.The amount of garlic is also a personal preference.

Time 20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon water
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon garlic
6 tablespoons sharp romano cheese, grated or 6 tablespoons parmesan cheese
6 tablespoons Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
1 medium size eggplant, unpeeled

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to very hot (450 degrees Fahrenheit).
  • Spray a shallow baking pan with cooking spray or wipe lightly with cooking oil.
  • Blend mayonnaise, water, lemon juice, and garlic in a shallow dish.
  • Combine cheese and breadcrumbs in another dish.
  • Trim and discard ends of eggplant.
  • Cut the eggplant horizontally into 3/4 inch slices.
  • Dip each slice into the mayo mixture to coat both sides.
  • Press both sides into the crumb mixture, pressing to adhere the breading.
  • Arrange each crumb coated slice on the baking sheet.
  • Place the pan on the bottom shelf of the oven; bake uncovered for 5 minutes.
  • Turn slices with a spatula and bake another 5 minutes (or more if needed) until the coating is crisp and the eggplant slices are tender.

The cutlets were a bit too thick. I think I would slice them thinner next time.

The cutlets were a bit bland. I think I would add some more spices next time.

These cutlets were a bit too oily for my taste. I think I would try using less oil next time.

These eggplant cutlets are a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. My kids loved them, and they didn't even realize they were eating eggplant.

I love eggplant Parmesan, but I don't always have the time to make it. This oven-fried version is a great shortcut. The cutlets are just as crispy and flavorful as the traditional version, but they take much less time to make.
