Cavolo Grigliato

Cavolo Grigliato is a deliciously smoky grilled cabbage dish that showcases the natural sweetness of the vegetable, enhanced with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of salt. It's a healthy, flavorful addition to any barbecue, perfect for those seeking a lighter option.

Ingredients

• Green cabbage - 300 grams
• Extra virgin olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Sea salt - 1 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/2 teaspoon
• Garlic powder - 1/2 teaspoon
• Lemon juice - 1 tablespoon
• Parmesan cheese (optional) - 20 grams

Steps

1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
2. Cut the cabbage into wedges, keeping the core intact to hold the leaves together.
3. In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and lemon juice.
4. Brush the cabbage wedges generously with the olive oil mixture on both sides.
5. Place the cabbage wedges on the grill and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, until they are tender and have nice grill marks.
6. Remove the cabbage from the grill and, if desired, sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese before serving.
