Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Core the savoy cabbage, slicing it into thick wedges, and scatter them onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Drizzle the cabbage generously with olive oil, then season with kosher salt and black pepper.
- Halve the delicata squash and scoop out the seeds, then slice it into half-moon pieces. Toss the squash on a separate baking sheet with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
- Place both baking sheets in the preheated oven and roast the cabbage and squash for about 20-25 minutes, checking for doneness halfway through.
- In a dry skillet over medium heat, toast pecan halves and pepitas for 2-3 minutes until fragrant and slightly darker. Reserve half for garnish.
- Add a splash of olive oil to the skillet and heat it over medium-high. Fry half of the minced garlic and sage until crispy—about 2-3 minutes.
- Sauté the chopped yellow onion in the same skillet until translucent, then incorporate the remaining garlic and sage for an additional minute.
- Transfer the sautéed mixture to a blender, adding roasted red peppers, red wine vinegar, smoked paprika, red pepper flakes, and season with salt and pepper. Blend until smooth.
- Toss the roasted cabbage with the romesco sauce, then add in the roasted delicata squash, mixing until combined.
- Serve portions of the salad on toasted sourdough bread, topped with ricotta, reserved nuts, and crispy garlic and sage.
