Step: 1

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step: 2

Slice eggplant in half lengthwise and score the flesh. Rub the flesh with salt and pepper and brush with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Place flesh down on the prepared baking sheet.

Step: 3

Bake in the preheated oven until it remains depressed when you poke the skin, 35 to 40 minutes. Remove from the oven and let rest for 15 minutes.

Step: 4

Use a fork to scrape the flesh away from the skins and into a large bowl. Add parsley, cilantro, mint, onion, garlic, and lemon zest.

Step: 5

Whisk remaining 3 tablespoons oil, lemon juice, honey, and vinegar together until just combined. Add to eggplant mixture and mix well. Season with salt and pepper and let rest 30 minutes before serving.
