Step 1
Slice the 1 large eggplant into 1/2-inch rounds. Sprinkle both sides with the 1/2 tsp salt and let sit for 10 minutes, then pat dry with paper towels.
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix the 3 tbsp olive oil, 1 tsp paprika, 1 tsp garlic powder, and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Brush the mixture onto both sides of each eggplant slice.
Step 3
Preheat a grill pan or outdoor grill over medium-high heat. Place the eggplant slices in a single layer, working in batches if needed to avoid crowding.
Step 4
Grill for 4-5 minutes per side, until the slices have nice grill marks and are tender when pierced with a fork. Serve hot.
