Hearty Baked Eggplant Parmesan
Enjoy a comforting twist on a classic Italian favorite with tender baked eggplant layered with tangy marinara and melty part-skim mozzarella, finished with a sprinkle of Parmesan and fresh basil. This dish offers a satisfying balance of flavors and textures that is both light and nourishing.
INGREDIENTS
1 medium Eggplant (200g)
1/2 cup Marinara Sauce (125g)
3/4 cup Part-Skim Mozzarella (84g)
1 tablespoon Grated Parmesan
2 tablespoons Fresh Basil Leaves
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Slice the eggplant into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Lightly brush or drizzle both sides with olive oil.
Arrange the eggplant slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and bake for about 15 minutes until just tender.
Remove the eggplant from the oven. Spoon a thin layer of marinara sauce over each slice.
Sprinkle the shredded mozzarella evenly over the sauced eggplant slices, then add a light dusting of grated Parmesan.
Return the baking sheet to the oven and bake for an additional 8-10 minutes until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Garnish with fresh basil leaves before serving. Enjoy warm.
