Watermelon Steak

Grilled Watermelon Steaks with Walnut Gremolata

Welcome to the grill, watermelon. Grilled watermelon is the hottest new barbecue trend, and for good reason. It tastes amazing and it’s super healthy!

Marinate these thick-cut “steak” fruit slices in a mixture of white balsamic vinegar, lemon juice and rosemary. Grill watermelon slices and top ‘em with a gremolata of walnuts, lemon zest and fresh parsley for knock-the-grill-tongs-out-of-your-hand taste.
