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 350øF.

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.
