Ingredients

  • 1 medium green cabbage
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil or melted butter
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme or rosemary (or fresh herbs, chopped)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
  • Optional: 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan or nutritional yeast
  • Optional: Lemon wedges for serving

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425 °F (220 °C) and line a baking sheet with parchment or foil.

  5. Arrange steaks in a single layer on the baking sheet.
  6. Roast for 20 minutes, flip, and brush with more garlic mixture.

Notes

  • Swap green cabbage with savoy or Napa cabbage for a milder taste.
  • Add red pepper flakes or sriracha for heat.
  • Drizzle balsamic reduction after roasting for extra flavor.
  • Top with crispy bacon or breadcrumbs for texture.
  • Brush with garlic aioli instead of oil for a creamy twist.
