Ingredients

  • Fresh broccoli: cut a head of broccoli into small florets so it cooks quicker on the flat top grill

Tips & Tricks

Large broccoli florets take longer to cook. For best results, cut the broccoli into small florets to speed up cooking time!

If you prefer a softer broccoli increase the cook time to 6 minutes. If you prefer a crunchier broccoli decrease the time to 4 minutes.

Save the broccoli stems and use them to make bone broth in your Instant Pot!

Stovetop Directions

If you don’t have a Blackstone griddle or similar griddle, you can make this recipe on the stove. First get a large cast iron skillet.

Heat the cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add avocado oil to the skillet once hot. Then add the broccoli.

Cook for 4-6 minutes or desired tenderness.

Remove from heat

Substitutions

If you do not have broccoli available, try making Brussel Sprouts or asparagus on the Blackstone Griddle.

If you prefer a different flavor profile for your broccoli, try adding in some soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, red pepper flakes and top with sesame seeds for an Asian stir fry sauce like flavor.
