Oven Roasted Garlic Cabbage Steaks are thick slices of cabbage brushed with garlicky olive oil and roasted until golden and crispy on the edges. This simple, wholesome dish transforms cabbage into a hearty, flavorful side or vegetarian main.

Ingredients

  • 1 medium green cabbage, cut into ¾– to 1-inch thick steaks
  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • Optional: 1/4 tsp paprika or red pepper flakes
  • Optional: lemon juice or chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Slice cabbage into thick rounds, keeping the core intact.
  3. In a bowl, mix olive oil, garlic, salt, pepper, and optional spices.
  4. Brush both sides of cabbage steaks with the oil mixture and place on the baking sheet.
  5. Roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway, until edges are crisp and centers tender.
  6. Finish with lemon juice or fresh herbs if desired. Serve warm.

Notes

  • Sprinkle with Parmesan or nutritional yeast before roasting for added flavor.
  • Brush with balsamic vinegar or Dijon mustard for a tangy twist.
  • Add smoked paprika or cumin for a smoky depth.
  • Red cabbage can be used, though it will roast darker and have a slightly different flavor.
  • Reheat leftovers in the oven or skillet for best texture.
