This grilled lacinato kale is a sophisticated vegan side dish that brings a wonderful depth of flavour to any barbecue spread. Also known as dinosaur or Tuscan kale, this dark, earthy leafy green stands up remarkably well to high heat. When kissed by the flames, the edges become characteristically crisp and slightly nutty, providing a satisfying textural contrast to the tender, wilted centres of the leaves.
Using wood chunks such as oak or maple on the grill adds a delicate smokiness that elevates this simple three-ingredient recipe into something truly special. It is a heart-healthy, gluten-free accompaniment that pairs beautifully with roasted root vegetables or plant-based proteins. Serve it immediately while the leaves retain their signature crunch for the best possible Mediterranean-inspired experience.

Ingredients for Grilled Lacinato Kale
2 bunches lacinato kale (also known as black, dinosaur, or Tuscan kale)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt
How to make Grilled Lacinato Kale
Strip away and discard the stems of the kale. Tear the leaves into large bite-size pieces and toss them with the olive oil and a good pinch of salt.
Cook the leaves briefly over a medium fire seasoned with chunks of maple or oak. They will begin to burn and sizzle almost immediately. This is a good thing. Resist the temptation to turn them; the burn is good; the burn is your friend. After 4 to 5 minutes, turn them once to give a slight char to the wilted leaves that have been on top. Cook for another minute or two, and then remove them from the grill. That's it. Serve immediately.
