Ingredients
Scale
- 1 large head green cabbage
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Remove any tough outer leaves from the cabbage. Cut the cabbage head into four equal wedges, keeping the core intact to hold the leaves together.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, minced garlic, salt, pepper, and oregano.
- Brush the garlic oil mixture evenly over all sides of each cabbage wedge.
- Place the wedges cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet.
- Roast for 20 minutes.
- Remove the baking sheet from the oven. Sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly over the top of each wedge.
- Return the cabbage to the oven and roast for another 5 to 10 minutes, or until the edges are slightly charred and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Serve immediately as a delicious side dish or low carb meal.
Notes
- For a softer texture, you can steam the wedges for 5 minutes before brushing with oil and roasting.
- If you do not have fresh garlic, use 1 teaspoon of garlic powder mixed into the oil.
- This recipe works well for meal prep; reheat leftovers in a toaster oven for crispier edges.
