  23. ### Prepare the Eggplant
  24. 1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  25. 2. Rinse the eggplants and slice them into 1/4-inch-thick rounds.
  26. 3. Sprinkle salt on both sides of the eggplant slices and let them sit for at least 15 minutes to release excess moisture.
  27. 4. Pat the eggplant slices dry with paper towels, then remove any remaining salt from both sides.
  28. ### Prepare the Breading Stations
  29. 1. In a shallow dish, whisk together the flour and 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
  30. 2. In another shallow dish, beat the eggs until light and frothy.
  31. 3. In a third shallow dish, mix together the breadcrumbs, garlic powder, Parmesan cheese, and chopped fresh basil leaves.
  32. ### Bread the Eggplant Slices
  33. 1. Dip each eggplant slice in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess.
  34. 2. Dip each eggplant slice in the beaten eggs, then coat both sides with the breadcrumb mixture, pressing the crumbs onto the eggplant to adhere.
  35. 3. Place the breaded eggplant slices on a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them evenly apart.
  36. ### Bake the Eggplant Slices
  37. 1. In a large ovenproof skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat, heat the olive oil until shimmering.
  38. 2. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly to avoid burning.
  39. 3. Add the crushed tomatoes, dried oregano, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper to taste. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
  40. 4. Nestle the eggplant slices into the tomato sauce, making sure they are fully submerged.
  41. 5. Cover the skillet with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes.
  42. 6. Remove the aluminum foil and sprinkle shredded mozzarella cheese over the top of each eggplant slice. Return the skillet to the oven and bake for an additional 10-15 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
