Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 large cabbage
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 180C/350F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and make cleanup easy.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, melted butter, and minced garlic to create a flavorful brushing mixture for the cabbage steaks.
  3. Cut the cabbage lengthwise into 1-inch thick steaks, discarding any excess leaves. Arrange the cabbage steaks on the prepared baking sheet.
  4. Using a brush, generously coat the tops of each cabbage steak with the garlic butter oil mixture. Then sprinkle evenly with salt and pepper for seasoning.
  5. Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake the cabbage steaks for 30 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and crisp.

Notes

  • To store leftovers, let the cabbage steaks cool completely and store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • To reheat, place the steaks on a baking sheet and heat in the oven at 175C/350F for 6-8 minutes until warmed through, or reheat in an air fryer at 190C/375F for 3-4 minutes.
  • For variation, add toppings such as parmesan cheese, fresh herbs, toasted pine nuts, or toasted pecans.
  • Make the recipe vegan by substituting regular butter with vegan butter spread.
  • Enhance flavors by serving with hot honey sauce, garlic yogurt sauce, or spicy mayo as dipping options.
