Roasted Cabbage with Bacon

Makes 6 wedges, serving 4-6 people.

• 2 lb. head of green cabbage
• 1 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
• 4 oz. good quality slab bacon, diced into 1/4-inch cubes
• coarse sea salt
• red wine vinegar or lemon wedges

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Trim the stem of the cabbage and remove one layer of the outer leaves. Cut the cabbage in half, and cut each half into three even wedges. Coat a rimmed baking sheet with the oil and place the cabbage wedges 1-inch apart on the sheet. Scatter the bacon over the cabbage.

Roast the cabbage for 20-30 minutes until richly browned on the bottom. Turn the wedges over and roast for 20-30 minutes longer until the bottom is richly browned again. Remove any dried outer leaves. Sprinkle with the coarse salt and serve with vinegar or lemon wedges.
