Ingredients

Scale

Vegetables

  • 1 large green cabbage (cut into 1.5-inch thick rounds)
  • 4 cloves garlic (minced)

Seasonings & Oil

  • 3 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp paprika (optional, for extra depth)

Cheese

  • 1 cup grated parmesan cheese

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to prepare for roasting the cabbage rounds.
  2. Prepare Cabbage Rounds: Arrange the 1.5-inch thick cabbage rounds evenly on a baking sheet, ensuring they lie flat for even cooking.
  3. Season Cabbage: Drizzle olive oil over the cabbage rounds, then sprinkle with salt, black pepper, and optional paprika to add flavor and a slight smoky depth.
  4. Add Garlic: Evenly distribute the minced garlic over the cabbage slices to infuse a bold, aromatic taste during roasting.
  5. Roast Cabbage: Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast for 25-30 minutes, or until the cabbage edges turn a beautiful golden brown and the vegetable softens.
  6. Top with Parmesan: Remove the cabbage from the oven, then liberally sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese on top of each round for a rich and savory finish.
  7. Melt Cheese: Return the baking sheet to the oven for an additional 5-10 minutes, allowing the Parmesan cheese to melt and bubble to a delicious golden crust.
  8. Serve: Serve the Garlic Parmesan Melting Cabbage hot as a tasty and nutritious side dish that pairs well with a variety of meals.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, try adding a sprinkle of red pepper flakes before roasting for a little heat.
  • You can substitute Parmesan with Pecorino Romano for a sharper taste.
  • Make sure cabbage rounds are cut evenly for uniform cooking.
  • Use a parchment-lined baking sheet for easier cleanup.
  • If you prefer a softer texture, roast an extra 5 minutes before adding cheese.
