Grilled Avocado
This Grilled Avocado makes a simple and tasty side dish, but I also love turning it into a full meal by topping it with beans, veggies, or grilled meat. The skin gets a little crispy on the grill, while the inside stays soft and super flavorful, perfect for a healthy lunch or a quick snack for the family.
Ingredients
- 2 whole ripe avocados
- 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice (more as needed)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (more for the grill)
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (or to taste)
Instructions
- 1
preheat the grill: Clean the grill grates, oil them, and preheat the grill to 400 F to 425 F.
- 2
squeeze lime juice: Slice the avocados in half lengthwise. Remove the pit, and immediately squeeze fresh lime juice on top of the flesh.
- 3
brush with oil: Slightly brush the avocado flesh with oil and sprinkle with salt.
- 4
add the avocado: Place the avocado halves flesh side down over indirect heat on the grill.

Grill with the lid open for 4 to 6 minutes, without moving them, to get the nice girl marks. The avocado is done when it becomes slightly tender.
