Grilled Broccoli Recipe
Garlic Grilled Broccoli is an excellent side dish for grilled meals. Marinate in a garlic and spice mix and then char on the grill for great flavor!
Servings:
Equipment
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce
- 3 cloves fresh garlic , minced
- 1 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1-2 heads raw broccoli , cut into florets
- 1 fresh lemon , cut into wedges
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the balsamic vinegar, olive oil, worcestershire sauce, garlic, salt and pepper.
- Toss the cut broccoli florets in the marinade mixture. Allow to sit for 15 minutes, tossing every so often to get the flavor into every nook and cranny.
- Heat the grill to medium-high heat. Oil a grill basket and set over direct heat. Add the broccoli, tapping off excess marinade and discarding any leftover.
- Toss the broccoli every few minutes until the edges are crispy and balsamic vinegar has caramelized, approximately 10-12 minutes.
- Remove the heat and spritz with fresh lemon wedges.

Notes
Pro Tip: Get several lemons and cut them in half. Grill, cut side down, to make lovely char marks and serve half of the lemon with the broccoli for a unique and sweeter lemon flavor.

This broccoli is really good & easy! When I am ready to grill , I drain the broccoli in a colander set in a bowl. Then I can save much of the deliciously seasoned garlic olive oil marinade for the next time I grill vegetables. Thanks for a delicious recipe!
I love broccoli and now I know I have to try it grilled. Thanks for the delicious recipe.
It is SO good grilled. I love the charred tips, just adds another level of flavor!
