Ingredients
- 4 cups kale
- 2 cups Brussels sprouts
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 2 units garlic cloves, minced
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
Step 2
Wash and thoroughly dry the kale leaves, then tear them into large bite-sized pieces, discarding the tough stems.
Step 3
Trim the bottom ends of the Brussels sprouts and slice each sprout in half.
Step 4
In a large mixing bowl, combine the kale and Brussels sprouts. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons of olive oil and toss to coat evenly.
Step 5
Spread the greens in a single layer on a grilling tray or directly onto the preheated grill grates.
Step 6
Grill the greens for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the kale is crispy and the Brussels sprouts are tender with charred spots.
Step 7
While the greens are grilling, prepare the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.
Step 8
Once the greens are done, transfer them to a serving platter.
Step 9
Drizzle the lemon-garlic dressing over the grilled greens and gently toss to combine.
Step 10
Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese over the top, allowing it to slightly melt from the heat of the greens.
Step 11
Serve immediately as a side dish or a light keto meal.
