Preheat the oven: Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil for easy cleanup.
Prepare the cabbage: Remove any loose or tough outer leaves from the cabbage. Cut the cabbage into thick slices, about 1-inch thick, creating “steaks.” Be careful to keep the slices intact.
Season the cabbage: Lay the cabbage steaks flat on the prepared baking sheet. Brush each steak with olive oil on both sides. Sprinkle with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the cabbage steaks for 25-30 minutes, or until they are tender and golden brown around the edges.
Add the cheese: Remove the baking sheet from the oven and sprinkle the shredded cheese evenly over each cabbage steak. Return the cabbage to the oven and bake for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Serve: Garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve hot.
