Add a photoForget its deep-fried cousin, this baked - then smothered in sauce and cheese - eggplant parmesan is where it's at!
Ingredientes

- 1 egg, 1 egg white, beaten
- 1 ½ cups panko breadcrumbs
- ¾ cup grated Parmesan cheese*
- 1 Tbsp Italian seasoning â or more depending on your desired taste. I probably used slightly more.

- S & P

- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Once oven has reach desired temp, place two baking sheets inside to preheat for about 5 â 7 minutes prior to cooking. When the baking sheets are hot, spray them with cooking spray before proceeding with eggplant placement.
- Meanwhile, wash eggplants and slice crosswise (not too thick, but not too thin). <âHow about dem apples eggplants?
- Add salt and pepper to beaten egg mixture in a shallow bowl. Mix breadcrumbs, parmesan and Italian seasoning in another shallow bowl.
- Dredge eggplant in egg mixture and then into breadcrumb/cheese mixture. Continue with remaining eggplant. Place eggplant in a single layer on preheated baking sheets and cook for 15 minutes. Flip and continue to cook for an additional 15 minutes. Eggplant should be crispy and making a knocking sound when tapped lightly with a fork. Pardon my non-culinary terminology, but thatâs the best way to describe it.
- Once crisp, place about ½ cup sauce on bottom of 9 x 13 casserole dish. Overlap eggplant in several rows and cover with additional sauce and mozzarella cheese. Cook for an additional 15 minutes.
- Garnish with fresh basil/parsley and serve over pasta or as a side dish.
