Ingredients
- 1/2 red cabbage
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 1/4 tsp kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp freshly ground pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Cut cabbage into 8 wedges. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
- Heat a large cast iron pan over medium high heat.
- Add 3 tbsp olive oil and half of the cabbage wedges. Cook 3 minutes on each side until nicely seared. Reserve to a plate.
- Add the last tablespoon of olive oil to the pan and the second half of the cabbage wedges. Sear both sides like the first batch.
- Once done, turn the heat off and nestle the first batch of wedges back into the pan.
- Place in the oven and bake 20 minutes. Turn the oven off and let the pan rest in the oven for 5 minutes. The cabbage will continue softening and caramelizing.
- Serve warm.
