Roasted Cabbage with Lemon

(1 serving of vegetable)

Ingredients:

  • 1 medium-sized head of green cabbage
  • 2 tablespoon chicken broth
  • 2-3 tablespoons fresh squeezed lemon juice
  • Generous amount of sea salt and fresh ground black pepper
  • Lemon slices, for serving cabbage (optional)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 450F/232C. Cut the head of cabbage into 8 same-size wedges, cutting through the core and stem end. Then carefully trim the core strip and stem from each wedge and arrange wedges in a single layer on the roasting pan (leave some space around them as much as you can.) Whisk together the chicken broth and lemon juice (use the larger amount of lemon juice if you like a lot of lemon). Then use a pastry brush to brush the top sides of each cabbage wedge with the mixture and season generously with salt and fresh ground black pepper. Turn cabbage wedges carefully, brush the second side with the chicken broth/lemon juice mixture and season with salt and pepper. Roast cabbage for about 15 minutes, or until the side touching the pan is nicely browned. Turn each wedge carefully and roast 10-15 minutes more, until the cabbage is nicely browned and cooked through with a bit of chewiness remaining. Serve hot, with additional lemon slices to squeeze lemon juice on at the table if desired. (2 servings. Calories per serving: 150.)
