Ingredients
1 large green or red cabbage
3 tablespoons olive oil (or melted butter for a richer flavor)
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
½ teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
½ teaspoon black pepper
Optional toppings: grated Parmesan cheese, red pepper flakes, or fresh parsley
Instructions
-
Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
-
Prepare the Cabbage: Remove any wilted outer leaves from the cabbage. Slice the cabbage into ¾-inch thick rounds or “steaks,” ensuring the core remains intact.
-
Season the Steaks: In a small bowl, combine olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, onion powder, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Brush the seasoning mixture generously onto both sides of each cabbage steak.
-
Roast to Perfection: Place the cabbage steaks on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer, leaving space between each steak. Roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway through. The edges should be golden brown and slightly crispy.
-
Serve and Garnish: Let the steaks cool for a couple of minutes after removing from the oven. Garnish with optional toppings like Parmesan cheese, red pepper flakes, or chopped parsley.
Notes
Air Fryer Method: Preheat your air fryer to 375°F (190°C). Follow the same preparation steps, then air fry for 10–15 minutes, flipping halfway through.
Seasoning Variations: Customize the flavor with spices like curry powder, Cajun seasoning, or Italian herbs.
Freezing: Freeze uncooked cabbage steaks after seasoning, then transfer to an airtight container for storage.
