Description
A delicious and healthy roasted cabbage dish topped with a creamy lemon and tahini sauce.
Ingredients
- 1 head green cabbage, cut into 8 wedges
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 cup tahini
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 2 tablespoons water (more if needed)
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds (for garnish)
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Add the cabbage wedges and toss until they are well coated.
- Arrange the cabbage wedges on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer. Roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the edges are crispy and the cabbage is tender.
- While the cabbage is roasting, prepare the tahini sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together the tahini, lemon juice, honey or maple syrup, and water until smooth. Adjust the consistency with more water if needed.
- Once the cabbage is done, remove it from the oven and drizzle the tahini sauce over the top. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and chopped parsley before serving.
Notes
- For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the tahini sauce.
- You can also substitute the tahini with almond butter for a different flavor profile.
