Let’s Make it together
Preheat Your Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). This ensures even cooking and that perfect golden brown finish.

Add Olive Oil and Garlic: Lay the cabbage steaks on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle them generously with olive oil and sprinkle minced garlic over each slice for maximum flavor.
Season Generously: Don’t shy away from the salt and pepper! A good sprinkle enhances every bite. If you’re feeling adventurous, add paprika for an extra layer of flavor.
Roast to Perfection: Place the baking sheet in your preheated oven and roast for about 25-30 minutes until the edges turn crispy and golden brown. Flip halfway through for even cooking.
Plate and Serve!: Once they’re perfectly roasted, remove them from the oven. Let cool slightly before serving—these beauties are best enjoyed warm!
