Ingredients
2 medium eggplant, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch slices
2 teaspoons salt
2 large onions, chopped
2 tablespoons minced fresh basil or 2 teaspoons dried basil
2 bay leaves
1 tablespoon minced fresh oregano or 1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon minced fresh thyme or 1 teaspoon dried thyme
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
1 can (12 ounces) tomato paste
1 tablespoon honey
1-1/2 teaspoons lemon-pepper seasoning
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1-1/2 cups dry bread crumbs
1/4 cup butter, divided
8 cups (32 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Instructions
Place eggplant in a colander; sprinkle with salt. Let stand for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, saute the onions, basil, bay leaves, oregano and thyme in oil until onions are tender.
Add the tomatoes, tomato paste, honey and lemon-pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 30 minutes. Add garlic; simmer 10 minutes longer. Discard bay leaves.
Rinse eggplant slices; pat dry with paper towels. In a shallow bowl, combine eggs and pepper; place bread crumbs in another shallow bowl. Dip eggplant into eggs, then coat with crumbs. Let stand for 5 minutes.
In a large skillet, cook half of the eggplant in 2 tablespoons butter for 3 minutes on each side or until lightly browned. Repeat with remaining eggplant and butter.
In each of two greased 11-in. x 7-in. baking dishes, layer half of each of the eggplant, tomato sauce and mozzarella cheese. Repeat layers. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Bake, uncovered, at 375 ° for 35 minutes or until a thermometer reads 160 °.
