GRILLED EGGPLANT, PEPPERS AND ONIONS



Grilled Eggplant, Peppers and Onions image

The happy mix of eggplant, peppers and onions is found throughout the Mediterranean. Cooking the vegetables over hot coals adds a welcome smokiness, but even a stovetop grill gives a hint of smoky flavor, so don't fret if you can't grill outside. This salad is meant to be served at room temperature. Feel free to make it up to 2 hours ahead.

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 small eggplants (about 2 pounds), sliced into 3/4-inch rounds
2 medium onions, sliced into 3/4-inch rounds
2 ripe bell peppers (or another type of large sweet pepper), halved and seeded
Extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
Salt and pepper
1 tablespoon capers, rinsed and roughly chopped
Pinch of dried oregano
Pinch of crushed red pepper

Steps:

  • Prepare a bed of hot coals in a charcoal grill, or heat a stovetop grill to medium-high. Arrange eggplants, onions and peppers on a baking sheet. Paint vegetables lightly on both sides with olive oil.

Grilled Zucchini, Onions, and Red Peppers image

This is a great recipe to use up all those vegetables that are coming in from the garden about now. Plus, I love to grill, and this just makes it easier to make a complete meal on the grill. These are also good in a pita with garlic mayo or tzatziki sauce! **Prep time does not include the time to get the grill ready for grilling!
