Description
A deliciously spicy and flavorful roasted cabbage recipe that is easy to make and perfect as a side dish.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 medium-sized head firm cabbage
- 2 T neutral-flavored oil
- 2 T fresh squeezed lime juice
- 2 tsp. Sriracha Sauce
- 1/2 tsp. Vege-Sal or regular salt
- 2 tsp. sesame seeds
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 450F/230C.
- Spray a baking sheet with non-stick spray or oil.
- Cut the cabbage into four same-size pieces and remove any outer leaves that are discolored or wilted.
- Carefully cut each piece in half to make 8 same-size wedges, keeping the core attached.
- Place each piece of cabbage on the baking sheet, arranging so the wedges are not touching each other.
- Whisk together the oil, lime juice, Sriracha Sauce, and Vege-Sal or salt to make the glazing mixture; then brush the mixture over the cabbage with a pastry brush.
- Carefully turn each piece of cabbage over and brush the other side, reserving some liquid to brush again when you turn the cabbage after it’s roasted on one side.
- Roast in the center of the oven for 15-17 minutes, or until the edges of the cabbage are starting to get brown.
- Use a large turner to carefully turn the hot cabbage pieces, then brush again with the remaining lime-Sriracha-oil mixture.
- Roast for 15-17 minutes more, or until the second side is starting to brown.
- Remove from oven, place on serving dish, and sprinkle with sesame seeds if using.
- Serve the Spicy Cabbage hot, and enjoy.
Notes
- Add more lime juice if desired.
- For a spicier kick, adjust Sriracha Sauce to taste.
- Use a full-size baking sheet for larger cabbage heads.
- Sesame seeds can be omitted if desired.
