Roasted Cabbage Salad

(10)

Cabbage sweetens in the hot oven and is paired with a sharp, cheesy Caesar-like dressing for a deeply satisfying side dish that pairs well with roasted chicken, pork or steak. Don’t be tempted to squeeze all the cabbage onto one baking sheet. Spreading it out between two prevents the cabbage from steaming and helps it caramelize.

Directions

  1. Position oven racks in top third and lower third; preheat to 425°F. Toss cabbage with 2 tablespoons oil and salt in a large bowl until well coated. Spread in an even layer on 2 large rimmed baking sheets.

  2. Roast the cabbage until tender and golden, about 25 minutes, rotating the pans between top and bottom racks halfway through.

  3. Meanwhile, whisk Parmesan, vinegar, soy sauce, mustard, garlic, pepper and the remaining 2 tablespoons oil together in a large heatproof bowl. (For a creamier dressing, process in a blender until creamy and smooth, about 30 seconds.)

  4. Transfer the hot roasted cabbage to the bowl with the dressing; toss until evenly coated. Let stand for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Garnish with additional pepper before serving, if desired.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
