Peanut Lime Charred Cabbage Salad

tbsp avocado or olive oil

garlic,

cabbage

scallions, roots

lime

tsp toasted sesame oil

fresno pepper, diced

cilantro,

maple syrup

edamame,

peanuts,

rice

Kosher salt

peanut butter

tamari

tbsp rice wine vinegar

garlic powder

tsp ground ginger

Prepare the cabbage by removing the outer leaves then cutting your cabbage directly in half through the core to keep the wedges intact. Cut each half into 2-3 wedges depending on the thickness of the cabbage.

Add the oil to a heavy bottom pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until golden then transfer to a dish and set aside.

Place the cabbage wedges in the pan cut side down in the oil and allow to sear undisturbed for 7-8 minutes each side or until well charred on all sides. Once the cabbage is charred to your liking, sprinkle generously with salt then remove from heat and allow to rest.

While the cabbage is cooking, add the scallion stalks directly into the pan. Allow the scallions to sear for 1-2 minutes on both sides then transfer to a cutting board and thinly slice.

When the cabbage has cooled slightly, remove the cores and roughly chop it then transfer to a large mixing bowl. Add the lime zest and juice along with 2 teaspoons of sesame oil and another pinch of salt. Using your hands, scrunch and massage the cabbage with the dressing. Add the scallions, pepper, cilantro, and maple syrup, then toss again to combine.

To a separate bowl, combine the edamame and remaining 2 teaspoons of sesame oil. Toss together and set aside.

For the peanut sauce, add the peanut butter, tamari, rice vinegar, maple syrup, garlic powder and ginger to a bowl and whisk together until it thickens. Add 3-4 tablespoons of water and whisk again until smooth. Adjust the consistency more by whisking in 1 tablespoon of water at a time until your desired consistency is reached.

To assemble, portion out your rice and top with some of the cabbage salad. Top the salad with some of the garlic chips, the edamame, and peanuts. Drizzle with the peanut sauce and enjoy.
