Grilled Broccolini
Grilled Broccolini is prepared by massaging broccolini with a sauce made from yellow mustard, Brazilian-style sofrito or garlic, olive oil, salt, and black pepper before grilling it until charred to taste. This technique imparts smoky, tangy, and savory flavors while retaining a tender yet crisp texture. It makes for a unique and flavorful vegetable side dish that elevates broccolini beyond simple steaming or sautéing.
