These Roasted Cabbage Steaks are a simple, flavorful, and healthy side dish made by seasoning thick slices of cabbage with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, and salt, then roasting them to crispy, tender perfection in the oven.

Ingredients

Vegetables

  • 2 small cabbage heads

Seasonings & Oils

  • 3 tbsp. olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp. salt (or to taste)
  • 2 tsp. paprika
  • 1 tbsp. garlic powder
  • Pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)

Instructions

  1. Cut the Cabbage: Remove the stems from the cabbage heads, then cut each head in half lengthwise. Next, cut each half into quarters so you have thick cabbage slices about ¾ to 1 inch thick from each head.
  2. Place on Parchment: Arrange the cabbage steaks on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, leaving space between each steak to ensure even roasting.
  3. Season the Cabbage: Brush the cabbage steaks thoroughly with olive oil, then sprinkle the salt, garlic powder, and paprika evenly over the top of each slice.
  4. Flip the Cabbage: Carefully flip each cabbage steak over and repeat the brushing with olive oil and sprinkling with the seasonings. Optionally add a pinch of red pepper flakes for some heat on each side.
  5. Bake the Cabbage: Place the baking sheet in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) and roast the cabbage steaks for about 25 minutes. Cook until the outer leaves have browned and crisped, and the centers are tender. Serve immediately while hot.

Notes

  • You can adjust the seasoning quantities according to your taste preferences.
  • For extra crispiness, broil the cabbage steaks for an additional 2-3 minutes at the end of baking but watch carefully to prevent burning.
  • These cabbage steaks pair well with grilled meats, roasted chicken, or as a vegetarian main course with a grain side.
  • Use olive oil or any neutral oil for roasting; avoid butter as it may burn at high heat.
