Ingredients

Grilled Eggplant:

Table cheeses:

  • 2/3 pound total Italian table cheeses, 1/3 pound each of 2 varieties: sharp provolone, Pepato, Fontina, Parmigian-Reggiano
  • 1 jar, 16 ounces, roasted red peppers, drained and sliced

Artichokes and Mushrooms:

  • 1 can quartered artichoke hearts, 15 ounces, drained well
  • 1 can button mushrooms, 14 ounces, drained
  • 1 clove garlic, crushed
  • 1/2 lemon, juiced
  • Drizzle extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon chopped flat-leaf parsley
  • 1/2 tablespoon thyme
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 3/4 pound total (1/4 pound each) thinly sliced Italian meats: sliced sopressata, capicola and Genoa salami
  • 1/2 pound black olives from bulk olive bins, any variety

Directions

Preheat a grill pan to high. Brush eggplant slices with oil and place on grill. Season with red pepper flakes, salt and pepper. Grill eggplant 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Arrange sliced grilled eggplant on a platter and top with a splash of red wine vinegar and 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil and chopped fresh parsley.

Wedge table cheeses and arrange them on your antipasto platter. Arrange sliced drained roasted red peppers next to your eggplant.

Combine artichokes and mushrooms in a bowl and toss with crushed garlic, lemon, extra-virgin olive oil, parsley, and thyme. Season artichokes and mushrooms with salt and pepper. Set aside.

Fan out sliced Italian meats on your platter between cheeses and pile your olives at the center of the platter. Prepare the rest of your meal. Just before serving, remove crushed garlic clove from artichokes and mushrooms and transfer the mixture to the antipasto platter.

    I have really only made the artichoke and mushroom part of this platter. It is very tasty. I like to leave the garlic clove in to give it even a stronger flavor and I use the juice of a whole lemon. Ive also added heart of palm to it a few times and find it to be a nice addition to the salad. I think you can pretty much doctor this recipe up to fit your own taste and it will come out great. Thanks for a very simple and tasty recipe.
