Microwave Oven Eggplant Recipe 🍆✨

Do you love the smoky flavor of grilled eggplant but don’t have time to fire up the grill? 🙌 Here’s a quick and easy microwave oven recipe for making deliciously soft and flavorful eggplant! First, wash your eggplant thoroughly and slice it into thin rounds. Season the slices with salt and let them sit for about 10 minutes to draw out excess moisture. Rinse off the salt and pat them dry with a paper towel. Brush each slice lightly with olive oil and sprinkle some black pepper and garlic powder on top. Place the seasoned slices on a microwave-safe plate, ensuring they don’t overlap. Microwave on high for about 3-4 minutes, flipping halfway through. You’ll know they’re done when they’re soft and slightly browned. Serve them as a side dish or add them to salads or sandwiches for an extra kick! 🍴🥗 This method is not only fast but also reduces kitchen mess. Perfect for busy weeknights or when you’re craving something healthy yet satisfying! 🥗🍴
