Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Slice the eggplant into 1-inch thick steaks. Arrange them on a lined baking sheet.
Drizzle the eggplant steaks with 1 teaspoon olive oil, sprinkle with chopped rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper.
Roast the eggplant in the oven for 25-30 minutes or until tender and lightly caramelized, flipping halfway through.
While the eggplant roasts, press the tofu to remove excess moisture and cut it into 1/2-inch thick slices. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat with the remaining 1 teaspoon olive oil and sear the tofu slices for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden.
Rinse and drain the chickpeas. Toss them with a pinch of salt, pepper, and a dash of olive oil. Roast or sauté them until they are slightly crisp (about 5-7 minutes).
For the garlic tahini drizzle, in a small bowl whisk together tahini, minced garlic, lemon juice, a splash of water to thin the consistency, and a pinch of salt.
To assemble, plate a roasted eggplant steak, top it with seared tofu slices, scatter the crispy chickpeas, and drizzle generously with the garlic tahini sauce.
Serve warm and enjoy this hearty, flavorful dish.
