Ingredients
Scale
- 1 medium green cabbage
- 2–3 tablespoons olive oil
- 3–4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- Optional: smoked paprika, chili flakes, grated Parmesan (non-vegan), or nutritional yeast
Instructions
- Prep the cabbage: Remove outer leaves and trim the base, keeping the core intact. Slice into 1-inch thick rounds.
- Preheat oven: Set to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Make garlic oil: Mix olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.
- Season: Lay cabbage steaks on the sheet and brush both sides with garlic oil.
- Roast: Bake for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway through. Look for browned edges and tender centers.
- Serve: Enjoy hot, optionally topped with Parmesan, herbs, or sauce.
Notes
- Use a sharp knife to slice cabbage evenly for consistent cooking.
- Don’t overcrowd the pan—roast in batches if needed.
- Add chili flakes or Parmesan for extra flavor.
- Leftovers reheat well in the oven or skillet—avoid freezing.
- Serve with tahini, sriracha mayo, or as part of a grain bowl or soup.
