Cabbage steaks are among the most delicious ways to enjoy this (often underrated) vegetable!

This cabbage steak recipe produces tender rounds of cabbage with caramelized edges that pairs well with any main dish!

Roasted Veggies Are Easy!

Cabbage steaks are perfect as a side dish, for meatless Mondays, or a quick snack.
Low in calories and high in fiber, cabbage pairs with your favorite savory herbs and seasonings.
Double the recipe and reheat in an air fryer for a week-long supply of delicious cabbage steaks.
A great alternative to fried cabbage, the oven does all the work. Just prep and bake!

Ingredients for Cabbage Steaks

Cabbage – I like green cabbage for this recipe, but red cabbage is great too. Choose a cabbage that is heavy for its size.

Oil – Olive oil is what I use since I always have it on hand. Swap it for bacon grease for a smoky taste (and sprinkle with crumbled bacon if you have it).

Seasonings – The seasonings are simple but feel free to sprinkle with onion powder or garlic powder.

Variations

Experiment with various seasonings or toppings to create your own cabbage steak recipe.

Sprinkle the steaks with Parmesan cheese or feta cheese.
For a crispy touch, sprinkle a few breadcrumbs over the cabbage steaks after flipping them.
For extra texture, sprinkle with chopped nuts like pecans or crumbled bacon.

To cut cabbage into steaks, start with a fresh head of cabbage and remove the outer leaves.

Place the cabbage on a cutting board and slice into ½-inch steaks across the cabbage. Thicker steaks will need more cooking time, while thinner steaks can burn.

How to Cook Cabbage Steaks

Roasting vegetables creates layers of flavor because they’re cooked at a high temperature, and using minimal fats caramelizes the outside creating a natural sweetness.

Prep cabbage and brush with oil, season with salt and pepper (or other seasoning blends).
Roast cabbage until the edges are golden brown!

What to Serve with Cabbage Steaks

Naturally, cabbage steaks make an impressive side dish to corned beef, but they can share oven space with baked chicken breasts or a perfect pot roast. Round out dinner with a green salad with a tangy, red wine vinaigrette and an easy homemade strawberry mousse!
