Grilled Scallions with Lemon

• 12 large scallions (10 ounces total), trimmed, leaving most of greens attached
• 1/2 teaspoon olive oil
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 lemon
• Special equipment: 2 (8-inch) wooden skewers, soaked in water for 30 minutes

1. Toss scallions with oil, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
2. Line up scallions side by side on a work surface and thread skewers, 1 at a time, crosswise through all scallions to form a solid rectangle.
3. (Skewers should be inserted about 2 inches from each end.)
4. Grill on lightly oiled grill rack, uncovered, turning over once or twice, until softened and charred in patches, 4 to 5 minutes total.
5. Transfer scallions to a platter and squeeze lemon evenly over them, then remove skewers.
