Broccolini is the smart and sophisticated brother of your traditional broccoli. Plus, it tastes great grilled and makes a fantastic side to any main course.
You can go a lot of different directions when grilling veggies but I tend to keep them simple and let the fresh ingredients shine. This is as easy as it gets, olive, garlic, salt and pepper...what could go wrong?

Lemon (garnish and zest)

Supply List
Optional: Veggie grill basket
Instructions
Step 1: Trim the ends of your broccolini.
Step 2: In a Ziploc bag, add ingredients, shake to mix (this can be done well before and stored in the fridge for hours until cook time). If you want to had a touch of heat you can add red pepper flakes.
Step 3: Turn your grill on high, you want anywhere between 450-500 degrees
Step 4: I put the broccolini directly on the grill. My broccolini had enough surface area to be just fine. That said, a couple piece did fall through the grate...so, a basket works too.
Step 5: Grill on high heat for around 7-9 minutes getting a nice char on the outside.
Step 6: Remove from the grill, drizzle with a touch of good olive oil, finishing salt and some zest from the lemon.
Enjoy!
