Ingredients
Scale
Vegetables
- 1 head of cabbage, cut into 1-inch thick slices
Seasoning & Oil
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
Optional Topping
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for roasting the cabbage steaks.
- Prepare Cabbage: Slice the head of cabbage into 1-inch thick rounds, carefully maintaining the shape so they hold together during roasting.
- Season Cabbage: Lay the cabbage slices on a baking sheet and drizzle evenly with olive oil. Season each slice generously with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika to enhance the flavor.
- Roast Cabbage: Roast the cabbage in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, flipping the slices halfway through to ensure both sides become golden and crispy.
- Add Cheese (Optional): If using Parmesan, sprinkle the grated cheese over the cabbage steaks after flipping and bake for an additional 5 minutes until the cheese melts and turns slightly golden.
- Serve: Remove from the oven and serve the roasted cabbage steaks warm as a healthy, tasty side dish.
Notes
- Cut the cabbage slices carefully so they remain intact for roasting.
- Flipping halfway ensures even crispiness on both sides.
- Parmesan cheese adds a nice savory crust but can be omitted for a dairy-free option.
- Adjust seasoning quantities to your taste.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated and reheated in the oven for best texture.
