This recipe has a subtle sweetness from the roasted cabbage that pairs so well with the savory crunch of the parmesan crust. When you mix in some garlic, onion, and smoked paprika, the results are amazing... plus I cook it in bacon fat, which delivers the perfect underlying umami for this dish. So good.

Ingredients

1 large green cabbage cut into 1-inch thick slices
6 tablespoons bacon fat melted
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 1/4 cups grated Parmesan cheese

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Arrange the cabbage slices in a single layer on the lined baking sheet.
Melt the bacon fat (or fat of your choice) and add to a small bowl. Combine the garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt and pepper in the bowl with the melted fat.
Using a silicone basting brush (or a spoon), brush the mixture evenly on all the cabbage steaks.
Divide the Parmesan cheese evenly between all the cabbage steaks, ensuring that they are all well coated.
Roast the cabbage on a rack in the middle of the oven for 20 minutes, rotating the pan halfway through. The cabbage should not be flipped!
Turn on the broiler and broil until completely golden brown, about 5 minutes.
Remove from the oven and allow to cool for 4-5 minutes before removing from the pan.
Serve hot with a dollop of sour cream and some chopped chives or green onions. Enjoy!

Notes

I cook my cabbage steaks on convection. If you are using a non-convection oven, increase the heat to 425°F.
