Ingredients

  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • Finely grated zest and juice of 1 lime
  • 1 tablespoon Tabasco Chipotle Sauce
  • 1 teaspoon honey
  • 1 garlic clove, finely grated on a Microplane
  • Salt
  • 4 heads of broccoli—stems trimmed, cut into large florets
  • Olive oil, for drizzling
  • 1 cup crumbled queso fresco (see Note)

Preparation

Step 1

In a bowl, stir the softened butter with the lime zest, lime juice, Tabasco, honey and garlic and season lightly with salt.

Light a grill. Drizzle the broccoli florets with olive oil and season with salt. Grill over moderately high heat, turning the florets occasionally, until crisp-tender and lightly charred, about 8 minutes.

Transfer the broccoli to a platter and toss with the lime butter. Garnish with the queso fresco and serve.

Make Ahead: The chipotle-lime butter can be refrigerated overnight. Soften it at room temperature before using.
