Ingredients
  

  • 1 large head of green cabbage
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 ½ cups shredded mozzarella cheese or your preferred cheese
  • Fresh parsley for garnish optional

Equipment

  • Parchment paper or aluminum foil
  • Sharp knife
  • Cutting board
  • Basting brush
  • Oven mitts

Method
 

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. Serve: Garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve hot.
