The best way to grill broccoli is to leave the very delicious and healthy stems on and grill it in one flavor packed piece! Serve with grilled lemons for the perfect grilled veggie side dish!

Ingredients
- 2 medium heads broccoli stems on, washed
- 1/3 cup olive oil
- 2 Tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 Tablespoons minced garlic
- 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
- 2 lemons cut in half
Instructions
- Whisk together the marinade ingredients in a small bowl.
- Using a vegetable peeler, trim the sides of the broccoli stem, until you reach the pale green tender part underneath. Trim all the way up to the florets as far as you can go.
- Cut each broccoli piece in half, down the middle of the stem and the head, until you have two halves that can lay flat on the grill. Repeat with the other broccoli.
- Place on a baking sheet and drizzle the marinade over each one, massaging into each piece gently and coating all areas evenly.
- Let marinate for an hour or two if possible.
- Preheat the grill for medium-high heat and oil the grate.
- Grill the broccoli arranged in a single layer with the cut side down on the grill grates.
- Close the grill lid and grill without disturbing until grill marks appear, around 4-5 minutes, then flip to the other side to grill. Flip again then grill until tender-crisp. During this time, place the lemons cut side down on the grill and grill until they are warmed and have blackened grill lines on them.
- Remove and plate, and serve each piece with a grilled lemon wedge.
Notes
- The stem of broccoli has all the health benefits of the florets and is absolutely the best part of the broccoli! Simply trim it and eat it- it's my dad's favorite part!
