CHARRED CABBAGE

Steps:

• Drizzle the cabbage wedges with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Place onto the grill and close the lid. Cook until the cabbage is charred and softened, flipping halfway, about 5 minutes per side.

Steps:

• Make the sauce. Stir together the hot pepper jelly, orange juice, vinegar, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper in a bowl or liquid measure. Stir and set aside.
• Grill the cabbage. Preheat the grill to 350 degrees F.
• Brush both sides of the cabbage with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place the slices over the direct heat of the grill and cook until the bottom is slightly charred, about 5 minutes. Flip the cabbage and brush with the pepper jelly sauce. Cook for another 4 to 5 minutes and remove to serving plates.
• Top with the salad. Combine the apples, tomatoes, scallions, lemon juice and a drizzle of the sauce in a medium bowl (make it as saucy as you like). Toss to coat and place an equal amount of the salad on the center of each grilled cabbage slice. Top with a few basil leaves. Eat it!

• Place the steaks on the grill, oiled-side down; close the lid and grill for 5 minutes. Brush more oil mixture on top and gently flip over; close lid and grill until tender-crisp and slightly charred, 5 to 7 minutes more. Remove to a platter and drizzle with any remaining oil mixture.

Season all over with salt, pepper and the paprika. Brush the skin of the fish with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil.

Flip the fish and continue grilling until just cooked through, about 3 more minutes.
