Directions Mediterranean Grilled Eggplant Spread
Directions
-
Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
Arrange red bell pepper, eggplant, and onion slices on on the preheated grill, cook until red pepper is charred and eggplant and onion are tender with grill marks, 5 to 7 minutes per side. Place red pepper in a paper bag and close tightly to 'sweat', about 10 minutes, peel the charred skin off the pepper.
Blend red bell pepper, eggplant, onion, olive oil, basil, oregano, lemon juice, sea salt, and black pepper in a food processor until smooth and spreadable. Stir in feta cheese.
