Ingredients
Scale
Vegetables
- 1 large head of cabbage
Butter Mixture
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Prepare the cabbage steaks: Remove any tough outer leaves from the cabbage and slice the head into 1-inch thick steaks. Try to keep the core intact so the slices hold together during roasting.
- Make garlic butter: In a small bowl, combine melted butter with minced garlic, salt, and black pepper until well mixed.
- Brush the cabbage: Place cabbage steaks on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Generously brush both sides of each steak with the garlic butter mixture, ensuring even coverage.
- Roast the cabbage: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Roast the cabbage steaks for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are tender inside and caramelized on the edges.
- Serve: Remove from oven and serve hot as a flavorful side dish with your favorite main course.
Notes
- For extra flavor, sprinkle some smoked paprika or chili flakes on the garlic butter before brushing.
- Use a sharp knife to ensure clean cuts for the cabbage steaks.
- Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the cabbage slices.
- Leftover roasted cabbage steaks can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated gently.
