Description

Cooking broccoli on a Blackstone Griddle is a fantastic way to add a delicious char and enhance the vegetable's natural flavors.

Ingredients 

  • 1 head broccoli, 2 medium heads, cut into florets
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher salt, to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, to taste
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice, from 1 lemon
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes, optional
  • 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese, grated

Instructions

  • Wash the broccoli and cut it into evenly sized florets for uniform cooking.
  • In a bowl, toss the broccoli florets with olive oil, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Ensure all the florets are evenly coated with the seasoning.
  • Heat your Blackstone griddle to medium-high heat.
  • Place the seasoned broccoli florets on the griddle in a single layer.
  • Grill the broccoli for about 4-5 minutes on one side until you see a nice char developing.
  • Flip the florets over and grill for another 3-4 minutes on the other side. The goal is to achieve tender broccoli with some crispy edges.
  • Once the broccoli is cooked to your liking, squeeze fresh lemon juice over the florets. This adds a bright and zesty flavor.
  • If desired, sprinkle red pepper flakes for a bit of heat and/or grated Parmesan cheese for a savory touch.
  • Serve the broccoli immediately as a delicious side dish.

Equipment

  • Blackstone Griddle
  • Cooking Oil, Vegetable Oil, Canola Oil or Avocado Oil

Notes

Tips:

  • Don't Overcrowd the Griddle: Give each broccoli floret enough space to ensure they char nicely and cook evenly.
  • Keep an Eye on the Heat: Adjust the griddle temperature as needed to prevent burning. Broccoli should cook quickly and develop a slight crispness without becoming overly soft.
  • Fresh is Best: Fresh broccoli tends to yield the best results in terms of flavor and texture.
Enjoy your Blackstone Griddle broccoli, a simple yet flavorful side dish that pairs well with a variety of main courses, adding a healthy and delicious element to your meal.
