Number Of Ingredients 7

4 small eggplants, cut crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices
4 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 baguette, halved lengthwise
6 ounces gorgonzola cheese, crumbled

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place eggplants in a colander set over a bowl; toss with salt. Let stand 30 minutes. Rinse well, and let drain. Press to remove excess liquid.
  • Arrange eggplants in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with 1/4 cup oil; season with pepper. Bake until tender, about 20 minutes. Set aside.
  • Preheat broiler. Melt butter with remaining tablespoon oil. Brush over cut sides of bread. Broil until top edges are just golden. Arrange eggplant in a single layer over bread. Top with cheese. Place on baking sheet; broil until cheese has melted and is bubbling, 1 to 2 minutes.

This grilled cheese was amazing! The eggplant added a nice smoky flavor and the gorgonzola was rich and creamy. I will definitely be making this again.
