Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 medium Green Cabbage, sliced into 1-inch thick steaks
  • 3 tablespoons Honey (or maple syrup/agave for vegan)
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 1 tablespoon Apple Cider Vinegar (or balsamic vinegar as variation)
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Smoked Paprika
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black Pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Cabbage: Remove any loose outer leaves from the cabbage. Slice into 1-inch thick steaks, keeping them as whole and uniform as possible for even roasting.
  2. Mix the Honey Glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together honey, olive oil, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper until smooth and well combined.
  3. Brush and Season the Cabbage: Arrange the cabbage steaks on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Generously brush both sides of each steak with the honey glaze, ensuring full coverage for maximum flavor.
  4. Roast to Perfection: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Roast the cabbage steaks for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through to achieve even caramelization and tender edges.
  5. Final Glaze and Serve: Remove from oven and brush with any remaining glaze for a glossy finish. Serve warm, optionally garnished with fresh herbs, nuts, or seeds for added texture and flavor.

Notes

  • Choose a firm, dense cabbage for sturdy steaks that hold together during roasting.
  • Slice cabbage evenly to ensure uniform cooking and texture.
  • Brush both sides of the cabbage with glaze for intensified flavor and better caramelization.
  • Watch the roasting time closely; look for golden caramelized edges and tender centers.
  • Finish with toasted nuts or seeds to add a delightful crunch.
