Preparation

  • Preheat the barbecue to high heat. Trim about 2 mm from the base of the rapini stems and keep the rapini whole.
  • In a large bowl, place the rapini, then add the olive oil, lemon juice and zest, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, smoked paprika, salt and pepper. Toss to coat well.
  • Place the rapini on the hot grate, perpendicular to the bars so it doesn’t fall through, and grill for 3 to 4 minutes on high heat, turning halfway through, until tender and slightly charred.
  • Arrange the grilled rapini on a serving plate, place the burrata balls on top and tear them open to let the creamy centre run out.
  • Drizzle with olive oil, top with lemon zest, fleur de sel and pepper. Serve immediately.
