CABBAGE AND SAUSAGE Recipe — Easy Oven Recipe

smoked sausage

💰Cheaper: pork sausage

olive oil

🥗Healthier: avocado oil

💰Cheaper: canola oil

Avocado oil is healthier, while canola oil is a cost-effective alternative.

Preheat the oven to 500°F and prepare a baking sheet by drizzling it with just shy of a tablespoon of avocado oil.

Brush the oil over the baking sheet using a pastry brush or your hands to coat it evenly.

Cut the cabbage into quarters, keeping the core intact, then cut each quarter into halves or smaller pieces if desired.

Place the cabbage wedges cut side down on the baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded.

Brush a little more oil over the cabbage and season it lightly with salt and pepper, flipping to season the other side as well.

Cover the baking sheet tightly with foil to steam roast the cabbage.

Bake in the oven at 500°F for 10 minutes.

While the cabbage is baking, prepare the herby dressing by mincing half a large shallot and soaking it in cold water for 10 minutes.

Mince about a third of a cup of fresh herbs (such as chives, parsley, and dill) and set aside.

After 10 minutes, carefully remove the foil from the baking sheet, being cautious of steam, and check the cabbage for softness.

Return the cabbage to the oven without the foil for another 10 minutes to allow it to brown and develop color.

While the cabbage is roasting, if using uncooked sausage, pre-cook it by pan-frying or boiling to ensure it cooks through during baking.
