Delicious and easy-to-make cabbage steaks roasted with a zesty lemon herb marinade. This healthy dish features thick cabbage slices brushed with a flavorful mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, oregano, garlic salt, and lemon zest, then baked to tender perfection with lightly caramelized edges.

Ingredients

Vegetables

  • 1 head green cabbage

Marinade

  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp garlic salt
  • 1/2 tsp lemon zest

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it reaches the perfect temperature for roasting the cabbage steaks evenly.
  2. Slice the cabbage: Remove any tough outer leaves from the head of cabbage, then slice it into 1-inch thick steaks to create sturdy pieces that hold together during baking.
  3. Prepare the marinade: In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, dried oregano, garlic salt, and lemon zest until well combined to form a zesty and aromatic mixture.
  4. Brush the cabbage: Generously brush both sides of each cabbage steak with the lemon herb marinade, ensuring every piece is well coated for maximum flavor.
  5. Bake the steaks: Place the cabbage steaks on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or foil and bake in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, until tender and the edges start to caramelize.

Notes

  • For best results, use a sharp knife to slice the cabbage steaks evenly to prevent them from breaking apart.
  • You can add extra herbs such as thyme or rosemary for a more complex flavor profile.
  • Serve the cabbage steaks as a side dish or top with grated Parmesan cheese or vegan cheese alternatives for added richness.
  • Leftover cabbage steaks can be refrigerated and gently reheated in the oven or skillet.
