SPICY GRILLED COLESLAW

Ready in: 50 MinTotal time: 50 Min

I know it sounds crazy, but it’s delicious! Grilling the cabbage before making the slaw adds a smoky element, and the dressing soaks in beautifully from the warmth of the greens. Serve at room temperature for the best flavor.

Ingredients

• One small head of green cabbage, cut through the core into 6 wedges
• One small head of red cabbage, cut through the core into 6 wedges
• Olive oil
• 8 tablespoons mayonnaise
• 6 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
• 4 pickled pepperoncini from a jar, seeds and stems removed and minced (or use pickled jalapeños as a substitute, if you like it hot!)
• 1 teaspoon celery salt
• Salt and freshly ground pepper

Instructions

1. Preheat your grill to high heat. Brush the cabbage wedges with the olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill the cabbage until charred, about 2 minutes per side. When the cabbage is cool enough to handle, finely slice it crosswise into thin shreds.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, cider vinegar, minced pepperoncini, celery salt and pepper to taste. Add the shredded cabbage and toss well.
3. Top with grilled avocados for texture and a beautiful garnish or pile the cole slaw into grilled fish tacos for a supreme meal.
