Grilled Eggplant in Sweet Chili Garlic Sauce - this simple eggplant recipe can be made with either stir-fried, grilled or roasted eggplants. Just cook the eggplant, then combine with garlic, sweet spicy chili sauce and herbs and you've got the best eggplant recipe out there.
Preheat the grill until 400F and make sure the grates are thoroughly cleaned with the grill brush, then wiped with a wet paper towel. Right before adding the eggplant to the grill, spray the grates with nonstick spray (turn off the grill for a second while you do this).
Next, in a bowl or a gallon sized ziplock bag combine cut up eggplant and oil, then toss quickly to coat.
Add the Chinese eggplant to the grill and cook over low heat, with the lid covering the grill, for about 10 minutes. Turn each piece every couple of minutes to promote even cooking.
Remove to a bowl and cover with plastic wrap. Allow to rest for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
Now add the Sweet Chili Sauce, chopped parsley, salt and pepper and gently toss everything to coat.
Refrigerate in a tightly sealed jar until ready to eat, up to 4-5 days.
Grilling or Roasting is the best way to cook the Chinese Eggplant as it does not require too much oil. If you would like to use a different way of cooking eggplant, read below.
