Bang Bang Cauliflower Kebabs

Recipe Description

These Bang Bang Cauliflower Kebabs taste absolutely delicious when cooked on the barbecue. Bang Bang is a dish from the Sichuan region of China, made with chili and garlic and garnished with thinly sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds. Blanching your cauliflower before you cook it means you’ll end up with a smoky and charred outside while the inside is perfectly tender.

To make these vegetarian kebabs, start by blanching cauliflower. Drain and rinse with cold water to stop cooking. Combine sweet chili sauce, oil, Sriracha, chili flakes, garlic, and lime juice to make the marinade. Place cauliflower in the bowl and toss to coat. Thread the cauliflower florets onto skewers. Grill, turning frequently until the cauliflower is charred and tender. Serve, garnished with scallions and sesame seeds.

To make my version of Bang Bang Cauliflower Kebabs, you will need the following ingredients:
