Grilled Cabbage Wedges Spicy Lime Dressing

Yield: serves 8 as a side dish

Ingredients:

• Juice of 3 limes (about 1/4 cup)
• 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
• 1 teaspoon fish sauce (optional - leave out for a vegetarian or vegan dish)
• 2 garlic cloves, roughly chopped
• 1/4 cup cilantro leaves
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon cayenne
• 1/4 teaspoon sugar
• 1 head green cabbage
• Olive oil

Directions:

1. Heat grill.
2. Mix lime juice, olive oil, fish sauce, garlic, cilantro, salt, cayenne and sugar and set aside.
3. Remove the loosest, toughest outer leaves from the cabbage, and cut into 8 evenly-sized wedges. Do not remove the stalk or inner core. Lightly brush the wedges with oil.
4. Place the wedges on the grill and cover. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the edges of each layer are blackened and the cabbage is beginning to soften.
5. Flip each wedge over and cook for an additional 5 to 7 minutes.
6. Turn the heat down or move the wedges to a cooler part of the grill so they don't burn. But don't be afraid of those blackened edges; you want a lot of grill and char marks on the cabbage to give it smoky flavor.
7. Take the cabbage off the grill and arrange the wedges on a plate.
8. Pour the dressing over top and serve immediate, with wedges of lime to garnish.
