Grilled Cauliflower With Bacon And Brie Recipes

GRILLED WHOLE CAULIFLOWER WITH MISO MAYO

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. Sprinkle cauliflower all over with salt in a large microwave-safe bowl. Cover with plastic wrap, pierce plastic a few times with a knife to vent, and microwave on high until a paring knife easily slides into stem, about 5 minutes. Let cool slightly. (Alternatively, set a steamer basket in a large pot filled with about 1" salted water. Cover pot and bring water to a boil. Add cauliflower, cover, and steam until a sharp paring knife easily slides into stem, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate and let cool slightly.)
• Heat butter, hot sauce, ketchup, and soy sauce in a small saucepan on grill, stirring occasionally, until butter is melted, about 2 minutes. Brush cauliflower all over with sauce and grill, covered, 10 minutes. Turn cauliflower over, brush with sauce, and grill, covered, 10 minutes. Continue to grill, brushing and turning every 10 minutes and reheating sauce as needed, until cauliflower is lightly charred on all sides and fork-tender, 25-30 minutes. The sauce should be used up by now, but if not, brush any remaining sauce over. Transfer cauliflower to a plate and let cool slightly.
• Whisk mayonnaise, miso, lemon juice, and pepper in a medium bowl until smooth. Spread on a plate. Set cauliflower on top and scatter scallions over.

GRILLED CAULIFLOWER

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Sprinkle cauliflower slices on both sides with olive oil, brown sugar, and seasoned salt.

CAULIFLOWER STEAKS WITH GREMOLATA

Steps:

• Slice cauliflower head into 3/4-inch-thick steaks. Heat an extra-large skillet over medium-high heat and spray with cooking spray. Working in batches, add cauliflower, reduce heat to medium, and cook until browned and lightly charred, about 5 minutes. Flip and add water; cook, covered tightly, until fork-tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper.
• For gremolata, stir together parsley, olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, minced garlic cloves, salt, and pepper. Serve with steaks.

GRILLED BRIE AND GRAPES WITH GRILLED BREAD

Steps:

• Light a grill or preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Clean and oil the grill grates or grill pan.
• Slice the baguette in half lengthwise and brush the cut sides with a little oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Place the grapes with their stems still attached in a medium bowl. Coat the grapes with a little oil. Season with salt and pepper.
• Brush the brie with a little oil, as well.
• Once the grill is heated, grill the bread until charred on both sides, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Remove and slice into pieces.
• Add the grape bunches to the grill and cook, turning every couple of minutes, until some of them begin to burst and they turn golden in color, 8 to 10 minutes. About 5 minutes before the grapes are done, add the brie to the grill.
• If using two 8-ounce wheels of brie, grill until you see nice grill marks, 1 to 2 minutes per side. If using one 16-ounce wheel of brie, grill until you see nice grill marks, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
• Remove the grilled grapes and brie and arrange on a board or platter along with the grilled bread.
• Slather a little of the gooey, grilled brie on a piece of bread and top with a couple of the grilled grapes picked from the stem.
