Ingredients

1 pound organic broccolini, washed, dried, and trimmed
1 teaspoon kosher salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ lemon
2 teaspoons chili crisp

Directions

Preheat outdoor grill to medium (400-425 F).
In a small bowl, combine the melted ghee, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Stir well to combine and partially dissolve the salt.
Place broccolini in a large bowl. Pour ghee mixture over broccolini and toss until evenly coated.
Arrange broccolini perpendicular to the grill grates. Grill for 6 to 8 minutes, turning once halfway through and again as edges char, until tender-crisp and lightly blistered.
Tips
- If the florets begin to darken too quickly, move broccolini to a slightly cooler section of the grill.
Transfer broccolini to a serving bowl. Squeeze lemon juice over the top, add chili crisp, and toss gently. Serve immediately.

Tips

Slice thick stalks lengthwise to ensure even cooking.
Keep stalks long so they are easier to turn on the grill and less likely to fall through the grates.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Heat a grill pan over medium heat. Cook broccolini in a single layer, turning occasionally, until tender-crisp and lightly charred. Toss with lemon juice and chili crisp after cooking.

Ghee has a higher smoke point than olive oil, making it ideal for high-heat grilling. It helps blister vegetables without burning and adds a rich, nutty depth that balances lemon and chili crisp.

Grill over medium heat, turning frequently to ensure even blistering. If needed, move broccolini to a cooler area. Toss with chili crisp only after grilling to prevent scorching.
