For a deeper smoky flavor, consider using wood chips like hickory or mesquite in your grill. If you don't have an outdoor grill, a grill pan on your stovetop will work beautifully. You can even broil the okra in your oven. Feel free to experiment with other fresh herbs like basil or parsley for an added layer of flavor. A pinch of red pepper flakes can add a pleasant touch of heat to the salad. For a richer flavor, try grilling the tomatoes alongside the okra.
