Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 30–35 minutes
Servings: 4
Ingredients
- 1 medium green cabbage, cut into 1-inch thick steaks
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- ½ tsp paprika
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- ½ cup crumbled feta cheese
- ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- ¼ cup cherry tomatoes, diced
- 2 tbsp sliced black olives
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat oven: Heat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare cabbage: Remove any damaged outer leaves. Slice cabbage into 1-inch thick rounds, keeping the core intact so the steaks hold together.
- Season: Arrange cabbage steaks on the baking sheet. Brush both sides with olive oil. Sprinkle with garlic powder, Italian seasoning, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Roast: Bake for 20 minutes. Carefully flip the steaks and roast another 8–10 minutes until tender and golden around the edges.
- Add toppings: Sprinkle feta, mozzarella, diced tomatoes, and black olives over each cabbage steak.
- Melt cheese: Return to the oven for 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and slightly golden.
- Garnish: Finish with fresh parsley and dill. Serve warm.
