Large seasoned cauliflower and broccoli steaks are charred on the grill until crisp on the outside and tender on the inside, then topped with a bright and minty chutney dressing. You can also swap in other cruciferous veg like cabbage or broccoli rabe, both of which are excellent when grilled. —Rachel Gurjar
