No pots or pans needed for this easy summertime recipe: The eggplant spears and sugar snap peas are charred side by side on the grill, and they perfectly complement a simple grilled steak. The lemony whipped ricotta provides a creamy brightness to balance out the smoky meat and veg.
Ingredients
4 servings
Step 1
Whisk ricotta, lemon zest, 3 Tbsp. oil, and 3/4 tsp. kosher salt in a large bowl until smooth and fluffy; set aside.
Step 2
Prepare a grill for medium-high heat; oil grate. Season steaks on all sides with 1 1/2 tsp. kosher salt and 1 tsp. pepper. Grill steaks until lightly charred and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 120°F, 5–7 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes before slicing against the grain.
Step 3
While steak rests, toss eggplant with 2 Tbsp. oil; season with 1/2 tsp. kosher salt and 1/2 tsp. pepper. Grill eggplant, turning often, until skin is lightly charred and flesh is softened, about 5 minutes.
Step 4
Grill peas in a grill basket or on a wire rack set over grill alongside eggplant, turning often, until lightly charred and softened, about 3 minutes.
Step 5
Spread reserved ricotta on a platter. Arrange eggplant and peas over. Drizzle with oil; season with sea salt and pepper. Top with mint and chile (if using). Serve with lemon wedges alongside.
Step 6
Transfer steak to another platter. Drizzle with oil, then season with sea salt and pepper. Serve alongside vegetables.

This was addictive! So much so that I made it twice in one week. The second time I used summer squash in place of the eggplant because that is what I had and it was just as tastey!

I'm growing Japanese eggplants and Fresno peppers in my garden this year so I decided to give this recipe a try. I used venison loin instead of strip steak but everything else the same. It was good. Something a bit different. I loved the cooling effect of the whipped ricotta on a hot summer day. I will make it again.
