Description
These Garlic Butter Roasted Cabbage Steaks are a flavorful, healthy, and easy-to-make dish. Roasted to perfection, the cabbage is coated in a rich garlic butter mixture with smoky paprika and fresh parsley, creating a satisfying and nutritious side or main.
Ingredients
1 large green cabbage
½ cup unsalted butter (melted)
4 cloves garlic (minced)
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon salt (to taste)
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
Optional: ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes (for heat)
Instructions
Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Prepare the Cabbage: Remove the outer leaves of the cabbage. Cut the cabbage into 1-inch thick slices (steaks) through the core so that each steak holds together. You should get about 4-6 steak pieces depending on the size of the cabbage.
Make the Garlic Butter Mixture: In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, minced garlic, smoked paprika, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are combined.
Coat the Cabbage Steaks: Place the cabbage steaks on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush both sides generously with the garlic butter mixture. If you enjoy a bit of heat, sprinkle red pepper flakes over the steaks.
Roast the Cabbage: Roast the cabbage in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the edges are golden brown and the cabbage is tender.
Garnish and Serve: Once roasted, remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh parsley for garnish. Serve warm and enjoy the rich, buttery, and savory flavors.
Notes
Serve: These garlic butter cabbage steaks make a great side dish to any meal or can be enjoyed as a vegetarian main course.
Customization: Feel free to experiment with additional herbs, spices, or a drizzle of balsamic glaze for extra flavor.
