Ingredients

  • 1 pound fresh okra
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions

  • Preheat the grill to medium high heat.
  • Wash and dry okra pods.
  • Trim off the woody stems and pointy tip.
  • Toss okra together in a bowl with olive oil and salt.
  • Grill for 3-4 minutes and then rotate a couple of times to cook evenly and develop nice grill marks.

Notes

Smaller okra pods are less chewy than really large ones.
Use a grill basket or grill pan if you're worried about okra falling through the grates.
You can use an indoor grill plate on the stove top if needed.
