Directions

1. Brush eggplant slices and sweet pepper pieces with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

2. For a charcoal grill, grill eggplant and sweet pepper on rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium coals for 8 minutes or until tender, turning once. (For a gas grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to medium. Place eggplant and peppers on rack over heat. Cover; grill as above.) Cool to room temperature.
