Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 heads endive
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 whole lemon
- 2 cloves garlic
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.25 cup vegan Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
Instructions
Rinse and dry the endive heads. Cut each head in half lengthwise keeping the core intact to hold the leaves together.
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves.
In a small bowl, squeeze the juice of the lemon and mix it with olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.
Preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
Brush each endive half lightly with the lemon-oil mixture on all sides.
Place the endive halves cut side down on the hot grill pan. Grill for about 5-7 minutes until they have nice grill marks.
Flip the endive halves to the other side and grill for another 5 minutes until tender but still holding their shape.
Remove from the grill and arrange them on a serving platter.
Drizzle any remaining lemon-oil mixture over the grilled endives.
Finely chop the fresh parsley.
Sprinkle the grilled endives with vegan Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley.
Serve warm and enjoy your delicious vegan grilled endives with a touch of lemon and Parmesan!
