Grilled Watermelon

Screenshot

Three ingredients are all you need to amp up your next summertime backyard BBQ. Grilling watermelon adds smokiness and is like a party in your mouth. If you experiment with different spices, keep the amount of sugar the same–you want the slices to caramelize and get good grill marks.

Ingredients

1/2 baby watermelon, cut into 8 (1-inch thick) triangles
2 teaspoons sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons chili lime seasoning (such as Tajín Clásico®)

Directions

Gather the ingredients. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.

Place watermelon slices on a clean work surface. Mix sugar and chili lime seasoning in a small bowl until evenly combined.

Sprinkle half of sugar mixture over watermelon slices. Flip slices over and sprinkle with remaining sugar mixture.

Place watermelon directly on the grill grate and cook until caramelized with grill marks, about 2 minutes. Turn and grill until grill marks develop, 2 minutes more. Transfer to a plate and serve immediately.
