Grilled Okra     

Ingredients:
1 pound fresh okra
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
salt and pepper, to taste

Preparation:
Preheat the grill to high. Trim the tips off the stems of the okra, but do not cut into the pods. Lay 5 pieces of okra side by side in a neat row at the edge of a cutting board. Skewer crosswise with 2 bamboo skewers, one at the top, one at the bottom. Lightly brush the skewered okra with oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill the okra until tender and lightly browned, 3 to 5 minutes per side, turning once with a flat spatula.
