Broccoli skewers are a flavorful and nutritious dish popular in grilled vegetable platters and often associated with Mediterranean and Asian cuisines. This simple yet vibrant creation involves skewering fresh broccoli florets, sometimes paired with cherry tomatoes, mushrooms, or bell peppers, and seasoning them with olive oil, garlic, herbs, or spices before grilling or roasting. Broccoli is rich in fiber, vitamins C and K, and antioxidants, making it a powerhouse for supporting immune health and reducing inflammation. When prepared with minimal oil and seasoning, broccoli skewers are an excellent low-calorie option for clean eating. However, if basted with excessive oil, butter, or sugary marinades, the fat and calorie content may increase significantly. Whether served as a side dish or a light appetizer, broccoli skewers offer a delicious way to incorporate nutrient-dense vegetables into one’s diet with flexibility and great flavor.
