Who knew a recipe this simple could be so delicious? Furikake is a mixture of dried fish, seaweed, sesame seeds, and spices popular in Japan. It adds a wonderful umami saltiness that perfectly complements the charred broccoli. Try it!

Servings: 4

Prep time: 5 mins

Cook time: 20 mins

Ingredients

1 head of broccoli
1 tablespoon sesame seed oil
½ teaspoons sea salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Directions

1 tablespoon furikake
Preheat the grill per the manufacturer’s instructions.
Slice the broccoli lengthwise, into about five ½-inch “steaks.” Brush each slice with sesame oil and season with salt and pepper.
Grill the broccoli on medium, indirect heat for 8–10 minutes, until well-defined char marks appear.
Flip the broccoli over and cook for 8–10 minutes. Remove them from heat. Season the broccoli with furikake and serve as a side or entree.
