Robyn's Garlicky Eggplant and Zucchini

1 medium globe eggplant or three Japanese eggplants (the skinny kind)
3 small zucchini
olive oil for brushing
coarse Kosher salt and freshly-ground
black pepper
3 cloves garlic, crushed
2 Tbs olive oil
1 Tbs red wine vinegar
crushed red pepper
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley (leaves only)

  1. If using globe eggplant, slice into 1/2" disks. Salt generously and set aside for 20 minutes. Rinse and pat dry. If using Japanese eggplant, simply slice eggplant in half lengthwise.
  2. Slice zucchini in half lengthwise.
  3. Brush vegetables with olive oil; salt and pepper.
  4. Grill over medium coals until somewhat softened and golden (see picture of veggies grilling for doneness), about 4 - 8 minutes per side, depending on heat.
  5. Meanwhile, combine garlic, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, and red wine vinegar.
  6. Remove vegetables to platter. Drizzle with garlic-oil-vinegar sauce. Sprinkle with fresh parsley and crushed red pepper to taste.
