Preparation steps
Rinse eggplant, wipe dry and cut into 1/2-inch cubes. Place eggplant in a sieve, sprinkle with salt and let drain for 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, peel and finely chop garlic and onion.
Heat olive oil in a pot over medium heat. Sauté onion and garlic until translucent, about 2 minutes.
Add eggplant and sauté, stirring, until softened, 4-5 minutes.
Rinse chile, wipe dry and coarsely chop. Rinse basil, shake dry, pluck leaves and coarsely chop. Add both to eggplant.
Add canned tomatoes and their juices and bring to a boil. Cover and simmer until sauce has thickened, 25-30 minutes. Season with salt, pepper and a pinch of sugar.
Divide pizza dough into quarters. On a floured surface, roll out each piece into a round, about 1/2 inch thick. Transfer dough rounds to two lightly floured baking sheets, using 2 rounds per sheet.
Layer eggplant on rounds. In two batches, bake on lowest rack of preheated oven at 475°F until edges are crispy, about 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, rinse oregano, shake dry and pluck leaves. Crumble goat cheese and sprinkle over pizzas 5 minutes before the end of the baking. Remove from oven, sprinkle with oregano and serve immediately.
