I’ve been having a real moment with cabbage lately. We’ve been eating it raw, we’ve been LOVING it in a good salad. We’ve even been eating it as a side dish by simply sautéing it with a little salt and pepper! Me + cabbage= all the yums!

I feel like it’s a veggie that deserves a heck of alot more credit for being so versatile and delicious!

Ingredients needed for the Roasted Cabbage:

  • Green Cabbage- you’re going to cut it into steaks that are about 3/4 of an inch thick. I like to leave the core intact so that the steaks hold together better and then I simply eat around it once served.
  • Olive oil
  • Spices- we’re going to use a simple but delicious spice blend that gets mixed with the oil and brushed onto the cabbage before roasting.
  • Parmesan cheese- this is largely what makes this dish shine! For a vegan dish, you can simply leave this off OR (even better) use a non-dairy parmesan cheese.
  • Mozzarella cheese

Making these Cabbage Steaks is super simple! Let’s go over it:

  1. Start out by prepping your cabbage. Remove any weird outer leaves and then cut it into “steaks” that are roughly 3/4- 1 inch thick. As I mentioned before, I suggest leaving the core fully intact so that the steaks hold together a bit better once roasted.
  2. Make the flavoring by combining the olive oil with the spices + 1/4 cup of the Parmesan cheese.
  3. Place the steaks on a baking sheet and then cover in the spice mixture. I used a pastry brush to get the cabbage evenly coated in the spices and oil.
  4. Roast them in the oven and once they’re nearly finished, add on the remaining Parmesan + mozzarella and roast for a few additional minutes until the cheese is nice and melted.

Ingredients 

  • 1 medium green cabbage, sliced into 3/4 inch “steaks”
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • ¼ teaspoon paprika
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ¾ cup Parmesan, shredded , divided
  • 3/4- 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded (I used about 3/4 cup but use more if you want them extra cheesy)
  • Fresh herbs for serving

Instructions 

  • Pre-heat the oven to 425 degrees F. Arrange the cabbage steaks on a baking sheet that’s lightly sprayed with cooking oil.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, salt and pepper, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, and 1/4 cup of the parmesan. Drizzle the mixture evenly on he cabbage and spread it so that it covers the tops. I used a pastry brush to make it a little easier.
  • Roast the cabbage for 22 minutes. Sprinkle on the remaining parmesan cheese as well as the mozzarella and put them back in the oven to broil until the cheese is fully melted and just beginning to bubble. Every broiled is different but mine took about 5 minutes. Watch is carefully so it doesn’t burn!
  • Serve with fresh herbs and ENJOY!

    This was great. Because we like spiciness, I sprinkled Aleppo pepper on top.
