Red Cabbage Slaw With Honey-Lime-Cumin Vinaigrette
- 1 whole red cabbage, cut into quarters and sliced into ribbons
- 1/2 cup Olive oil
- 1/3 cup Lime juice
- 2 garlic cloves, chopped then mashed with the side of the knife blade
- 2 teaspoons Ground cumin (plus a pinch just because I LOVE cumin!)
- 1 teaspoon Paprika ((smoked paprika is even better if you have it)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon honey (adjust to taste, add more honey if you prefer the dressing sweeter)
- Combine lime juice, honey, garlic, cumin, paprika in a mixing bowl.
- Slowly add olive oil as you whisk dressing together.
- Adding oil slowly while whisking helps emulsify the dressing so it won't separate (science, baby!).
- Add salt + pepper to taste as you go along, adjust as needed.
- Add dressing to cabbage and mix well.
- Let sit for 20-30 minutes. It gets better after it sits for a while.
- p.s. *It was even better the next day when we had the leftovers with chicken.
