GRILLED OKRA WITH SPICED SPRINKLE



Grilled Okra with Spiced Sprinkle image

When okra's fresh and plump in the summer, it's best barely cooked. With this quick grilling technique, it ends up as crunchy as a cucumber and smoky like barbecue. I sprinkle on the spice right after cooking so the residual heat from the grill takes the edge off the spices without burning them.

1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Okra, stems trimmed
Vegetable oil, for coating
Kosher salt

Steps:

  • For the barbecue spice blend: Mix all the spices together.
  • For the grilled okra: Prepare a charcoal grill for direct grilling over hot coals, or heat a gas grill or grill pan to high.

CRISPY GRILLED OKRA

Simplest and tastiest recipe for okra ever. I didn't think I liked okra, but decided to give it another try when when I saw at my local farmers' market. I don't like slimy okra, and I like to keep things simple but tasty. This recipe is it! You can skewer them to make them a little easier to handle on the grill.
