• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Lightly coat a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray. Arrange eggplant slices on baking sheet. Sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon of the kosher salt. Let stand for 20 minutes. Place eggplant slices in a colander; rinse with cold water and drain well. Pat dry with paper towels. Arrange on the same baking sheet.
