Grilled Watermelon Steak with Balsamic Glaze

Today, I’m excited to share a unique and refreshing summer recipe that will wow your taste buds — Grilled Watermelon Steak with Balsamic Glaze. This dish is perfect for a hot day when you’re looking for something light, juicy, and packed with flavor. Let’s dive into the details!

Ingredients:

  • watermelon (thick slices)
  • balsamic vinegar
  • olive oil
  • fresh mint leaves
  • sea salt
  • black pepper

Kitchen Tools:

  • grill
  • tongs
  • brush

To start, preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Brush both sides of the thick watermelon slices with olive oil and place them on the grill. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until you see grill marks forming.

In a small saucepan, combine balsamic vinegar and a touch of honey over medium heat. Let it simmer until it has reduced by half and has a thick, syrupy consistency. This will be your balsamic glaze.

Once the watermelon slices are grilled to perfection, arrange them on a serving platter. Drizzle the balsamic glaze over the top and sprinkle with fresh mint leaves, sea salt, and black pepper for an extra burst of flavor.

The contrast of the smoky grilled watermelon with the sweet and tangy balsamic glaze is truly a sensation for the senses. This dish is perfect for a summer barbecue or a light, al fresco meal with friends and family.

Approximate total weight of the cooked dish: 600g
Number of servings: 4
Average weight of one serving: 150g
Approximate calorie count per serving: 80 calories

Clever Tip:

To add an extra depth of flavor, try sprinkling some crumbled feta cheese over the grilled watermelon before drizzling with the balsamic glaze. The salty and creamy aspect of the cheese will take this dish to a whole new level!

I hope you give this Grilled Watermelon Steak with Balsamic Glaze recipe a try and enjoy it as much as I do. Feel free to customize it with your favorite herbs or toppings to make it your own. Happy cooking!
