Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Trim the broccoli florets into bite-sized pieces, ensuring they are relatively uniform in size for even cooking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the broccoli florets with olive oil, finely minced garlic, lemon zest, freshly squeezed lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes.
Toss the broccoli until well coated with the seasoning mixture.
Place the seasoned broccoli florets on the grill basket or directly on grates if they are large enough to not fall through, spreading them out evenly to ensure they grill properly.
Grill the broccoli for about 12-15 minutes, turning occasionally until they are crisp-tender and have a nice char on them.
Remove from grill and transfer to a serving platter.
Serve hot, garnished with additional lemon wedges, if desired.
