NO-PREP SIDE
Easy Grilled Broccolini
Lately, Broccolini has become my most-grilled vegetable, which is a lofty feat at my house. I particularly love it because it's prep-free. On the whole, most vegetables need some sort of culinary intervention before grilling. Zucchini needs to be sliced. Asparagus needs to be peeled. The list goes on.

Ingredients
- 2 bunches fresh Broccolini (about 1 lb), rinsed and dried
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 clove garlic, finely grated
- Flaky sea salt, freshly ground black pepper & lemon wedges
- 2 tbsp shaved Parmesan cheese (optional)
Directions
1
Oil and season
Toss whole Broccolini stalks with olive oil, grated garlic, salt, and pepper.
2
Grill over high heat
Grill perpendicular to grates for 6-8 minutes, turning once until florets are charred and stems are tender-crisp.
3
Finish with lemon
Transfer to platter, squeeze fresh lemon juice all over, and scatter shaved Parmesan.
💡 CHEF'S PRO TIPS
- Lay Broccolini perpendicular to the grill grates so they don't fall into the fire.

This has completely replaced my normal avocado toast! The beans blend so well you cannot even tell, and I stay full until lunchtime!

Great trick for adding protein without cooking eggs on busy mornings. Added a pinch of red pepper flakes and lemon zest—delicious.
