Ingredients
- 1 medium head Green cabbage
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Step 2
Remove any tattered outer leaves from the cabbage, then wash and thoroughly dry the cabbage head.
Step 3
Slice the cabbage into 1-inch thick rounds, keeping the core intact to ensure the slices hold together during roasting.
Step 4
Place the cabbage rounds onto a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Step 5
In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt.
Step 6
Brush both sides of each cabbage round with the olive oil mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Step 7
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 25 minutes, flipping the cabbage slices halfway through to ensure both sides are evenly browned.
Step 8
The cabbage is ready when it is tender in the middle and crispy around the edges. If you prefer more charring, leave for an additional 5 minutes.
Step 9
Remove from the oven and serve warm. Enjoy as a side dish, or pair it with your favorite lean protein for a complete meal.
