Grilled Cantaloupe

By Meathead Goldwyn

This is a great, light, simple-to-prepare dessert. But you can also serve this as a side dish to grilled pork chops, halibut steaks, salmon filets, or grilled chicken breasts.

Makes. 4 servings

Takes. 30 minutes

Ingredients

1 large cantaloupe

1/4 cup honey

1/4 cup lemon juice

2 tablespoons cracked black pepper

Method

1) In a shallow dish, stir together the honey and lemon juice. Set aside.

2) Cut the melon into 1/2-inch round slices. Remove the pulp and seeds and cut the slices in half so you have half-moon slices.

3) Preheat the barbecue to about 325°F.

4) Place the slices directly on the hot grill, brush with the honey-lemon mixture, and cook just long enough to get good grill marks on the bottom side. Turn and brush again with the honey-lemon. Remove the slices from the grill after 2 to 3 minutes.

5) Place the slices on a serving platter, brush the better-marked side with more honey-lemon, and generously sprinkle with the cracked black pepper. http://amazingribs.com/recipes/desserts/grilled_canteloupe.html
