Ingredients:

Serving

1 12- oz container grape or cherry tomatoes , quartered lengthwise
2 celery stalks, finely diced
1/2 cup chopped vidalia or maui onion
5 large green olives, pitted, thinly sliced (about 2 tbsp)
2 tbsp coarsely chopped fresh oregano plus sprigs for garnish
1 tbsp drained capers, rinsed
1 garlic clove, minced
pinch of dried crushed red pepper
3 tbsp red wine vinegar
1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil plus additional for brushing
1 large eggplant (1 1/2 to 1 3/4 lb), trimmed

Directions:

Mix tomatoes, celery, onion, olives, chopped oregano, capers, garlic, and crushed red pepper in medium bowl. Whisk red wine vinegar and 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil in small bowl; pour over tomato mixture and toss to coat. Season caponata to taste with salt and pepper. DO AHEAD: Caponata can be prepared 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature.
Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Peel eggplant lengthwise to create alternating 2-inch-wide intervals of peeled and unpeeled skin. Cut eggplant crosswise into 6 slices, each about 1 inch thick. Brush eggplant slices with oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill eggplant slices until slightly charred and very tender when pierced with knife, about 8 minutes per side.
Place 1 grilled eggplant slice on each of 6 plates. Spoon caponata over, garnish with oregano sprigs, and serve warm or at room temperature.
