Grilled Zucchini & Eggplant Parmesan Recipe {Vegetarian}
 
 
From the kitchen of Cookin Canuck. www.cookincanuck.com
Serves: Serves 4
Ingredients
  • 1 (1½ lb.) eggplant
  • 1 large zucchini
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • ½ tsp kosher salt
  • ½ tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 3 oz. fresh mozzarella, thinly sliced
  • 1½ cups tomato sauce (your favorite kind)
  • 10 large basil leaves
 
Instructions
  1. Preheat the grill to medium heat.
  2. Cut the eggplant into ½-inch slices (total 12 slices). Cut the zucchini in half crosswise. Cut each half into ¼/-inch slices (total 8 slices).
  3. Lay the eggplant and zucchini slices on a baking sheet. Brush on both sides with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  4. Grill until the vegetables are tender, but not overcooked, about 4 minutes per side for the eggplant and 3 minutes per side for the zucchini.
  5. In the last 30 seconds of cooking, divide the mozzarella evenly between the eggplant rounds. Re-close the barbecue lid and cook for additional 30 seconds, or until the mozzarella is melted.
  6. Lay one eggplant round on each of 4 plates. Top each with 2 tbsp tomato sauce. Next, divide half of the basil between the 4 portions.
  7. Top each with one zucchini slice. Continue stacking in this order, ending with an eggplant round and tomato sauce. Spoon any remaining tomato sauce around each stack.
  8. Serve immediately.
