This chilled roasted eggplant and bell pepper salad is a great side dish or an appetizer in the summer. Perfect for parties; just add a bowl of tortilla chips next to it. You can also serve this hot with grilled chicken or fish. Either way, it's delicious! Garnish with dill or parsley.

  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and saute until browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Add remaining olive oil to the skillet; add eggplant and bell pepper. Saute until starting to soften, about 5 minutes. Add tomato, garlic, parsley, salt, and pepper; cook 2 to 3 minutes more. Return sauteed onion to the skillet. Adjust seasonings if necessary. Transfer eggplant mixture to a baking pan.

  • Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. Cool before serving, about 1 hour.

Cook's Notes:

You can substitute cilantro for parsley, if you like.

You can make this salad a day ahead, since the flavor is even better the next day.

I love the vegetables in this recipe and it’s pretty simple to make but the end result is watery and not crispy. I’m sure it’s something I may have done wrong but I won’t make this recipe again. Read More

Excellent eggplant dish! Good hot or cold. I used multi colored peppers and a can of diced tomatoes rather than fresh. I also added a can of drained chickpeas, oregano and basil. Read More

I substituted 1 tsp dried dill for the parsley and skipped the cooling down part after sampling it fresh out of the oven (and it didn't take very long to cool down to edible temperature). It tasted great by itself or topped with parmesan cheese. Read More
