This Greek Style Roasted Eggplant features crispy, tender eggplant topped with roasted garlic, sun-ripened tomatoes, and creamy feta, bringing a slice of the Mediterranean to your kitchen.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large eggplant
  • 2 cups cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 small red onion, diced
  • 1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh herbs for garnish (like parsley or basil)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Slice the eggplant into rounds about half an inch thick. Lay them out on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt, pepper, and oregano.
  3. Roast the eggplant in the oven for 20-25 minutes until tender and golden.
  4. Combine your cherry tomatoes and diced red onion in a bowl. Add lemon juice and mix well.
  5. Remove the eggplant from the oven and top it with the tomato and onion mixture.
  6. Sprinkle crumbled feta cheese on top and garnish with fresh herbs.
  7. Serve warm as an appetizer or a light main dish.

Notes

Look for heavy eggplants with smooth skin; they should feel firm to the touch. To avoid bitterness, sprinkle salt on eggplant before cooking and let rest for 30 minutes.
