While you might think of coconut as a fruit, this tropical food is technically a fruit, a nut, and a seed, per the国会图书馆。Inside you get a whole lot of fat, so a little goes a long way, but one thing you may not consider it for is its fiber — each raw piece measuring 2 inches by 2 ½ inches offers 4 grams (g), as theU.S. Department of Agriculturenotes, making it a good source of the filling nutrient.
Preheat grill to medium. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. Use a Phillips-head screwdriver to pierce holes in all three of the eyes of the coconut. If necessary, use a hammer to help. Drain all of the coconut water into a bowl and reserve for another purpose.
Use the hammer to break the coconut in half. Alternatively, place the coconut in a 400 degree F oven and bake until the outer shell of the coconut cracks, about 20 minutes. Use a spoon to separate the coconut flesh from the outer shell.
Place coconut pieces on the preheated grill and cook until they begins to brown, about 5 minutes. Flip the coconut pieces and cook for 4 to 5 minutes more. Place the coconut on a plate and cover with aluminum foil.
