Granted, this doesn’t take quite as long as a piece of protein, but be patient and let it cook to yield that melty center that is almost creamy and the perfect canvas for a fresh and tangy herb salad. And that combination isn’t just magic, it’s also just the thing to round out your summer BBQ menu. Enjoy!
