GRILLED CABBAGE WEDGES



Grilled Cabbage Wedges image

Cabbage wedges with chargrilled marks can be used as a side dish or incorporated into other dishes. I use this along my grilled teriyaki chicken kabobs, serving it all over basmati rice. The semi-carbon taste of the chargrilled marks enhance the flavor. Don't be afraid of a little brown/black color of charring it. It's good! Trust me.

Time 20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 medium head cabbage
8 metal skewers
½ cup olive oil, or as needed
1 pinch seasoned salt (such as Lawry's®), or to taste
1 pinch ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Cut cabbage into 8 wedges. Place a metal skewer through each wedge to hold in place and keep from falling apart. Drizzle both sides with olive oil and sprinkle with seasoned salt and pepper.
  • Place directly on the grill and cook until grill marks are achieved, turning once, 8 to 12 minutes total. Remove from skewers and serve.

GRILLED CABBAGE WEDGES WITH A CREAMY ONION VINAIGRETTE



Grilled Cabbage Wedges With a Creamy Onion Vinaigrette image

I love cabbage and this is a nice twist for a salad. A sweet onion vinaigrette, bits of sauteed bacon, and warm cabbage that is grilled but but still is a bit crispy. This can either be served as salad or as a vegetable side dish.

Time 30m

Yield 6-8 Wedges, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 head green cabbage, cut in wedges
4 slices bacon, diced and sauteed
2 tablespoons butter, melted
salt
pepper
1 large sweet onion (I used a Vidalia, but any sweet onion will work)
1 cup olive oil
1/3 cup red wine vinegar
3/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon ground mustard
salt
pepper

Steps:

  • Vinaigrette -- Make Ahead. Add the onion, sugar, vinegar, mustard to a blender and puree until smooth. Slowly add in the olive oil and continue to blend until you get a creamy dressing. Season with salt and pepper to taste. I like to make this ahead and store in a small jar or tupperware container. Then just shake before serving.
  • Bacon -- I also make this ahead to save some time. Simply add the chopped bacon to a small saute pan on medium heat and slowly start to cook the bacon. There should be enough fat in the bacon, so no oil or butter is necessary. Saute until the bacon is crisp. Remove to a plate lined with a paper towel to drain. Set to the side until you are ready to make the cabbage. I like to make mine a day ahead and store in a small ziplock back in the refrigerator.
  • Cabbage -- First, remove any soft or old outside leaves from the head and then cut in wedges. I usually will get 6-8 wedges per head (depends on the size). Melt the butter, I did mine in a small glass in the microwave. Brush the cut sides of the cabbage with the melted butter and season well with salt and pepper.
  • Grill -- This can be done on a charcoal, gas or even an inside grill. Grill each side approximately 5 minutes. You want a bit of a char, but not too long; you want the cabbage to still be a bit crispy.
  • Serve -- Top each cabbage wedge with the onion vinaigrette and bacon bits. This is absolutely delish! ENJOY!
