Light Eggplant Parmesan Recipe
- 2 Chinese eggplant, cut into planks
- 1 C Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
- 1/4 C pecorino romano, finely grated
- 1/2 C egg beaters
- cooking spray
- bottled sauce of choice (I like Paul Newman's Basil)
- fresh Mozzerella
- cooked spaghetti, or sliced french bread
- Preheat oven to 400.
- Line baking sheet with parchement.
- Mix breadcrumbs with cheese and a little fresh ground black pepper.
- Dip a plank of eggplant in egg beaters, then roll in breadcrumbs, pressing to adhere.
- Place on sheet.
- Repeat with the rest of the eggplant.
- Spray eggplant lightly with olive oil.
- Bake eggplant for 15-20 minutes, or until soft.
- Remove from oven.
- If you plan to serve over pasta, group planks side by side in twos and add two slices of fresh mozzerella to each.
- Return to oven and bake 5 minutes until cheese has melted.
- Layer plate with spaghetti, warmed tomato sauce and eggplant on top.
- For sandwiches, spread both halves of bread thickly with sauce, then layer eggplant and cheese.
- Spray outsides of sandwich with olive oil.
- Grill until cheese melts.
