Best Ever Garlic Cabbage Steaks
If you’ve never thought of cabbage as the star of your dinner plate, these Oven Roasted Garlic Cabbage Steaks are about to change your mind. There is something truly magical that happens in the high heat of the oven; the tough, crunchy leaves soften into a buttery tenderness in the center, while the outer edges turn into lacy, caramelized "chips."
Ingredients
- 1 head Green cabbage
- 3 tbsp Extra virgin olive oil
- 4 cloves Garlic minced
- 1 tsp Kosher salt
- ½ tsp Black pepper
- ¼ tsp Red pepper flakes
- 2 tbsp Fresh chives chopped
- Lemon wedges for serving
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a large rimmed baking sheet.
- Remove any loose or damaged outer leaves from the cabbage. Slice the cabbage into 1-inch thick rounds.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes.
- Place cabbage steaks on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the garlic oil mixture generously over the tops.
- Carefully flip the steaks and brush the other side with the remaining oil.
- Roast for 25–30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the edges are crispy and the center is tender.
- Remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh chives and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice.
- Serve immediately while hot and crispy.
