How to make Cheesy Baked Cabbage Steaks
The key in thisroasted cabbage steaks recipeis to slice the head of the cabbage into thick pieces so it can hold a lot of seasoning and cheese. Usually, a whole cabbage head will yield 4 or 5 steaks that hold pretty well together.Don’t try to cut the core out – if you do, the wedges will fall apart.
Once we cut thick cabbage slices, we season them with olive oil, salt, pepper, Italian seasoning, garlic, paprika, and parmesan before roasting them. This allows the cabbage to get a little browned with crispy edges.
Then we top cabbage with mozzarella and parmesan before broiling until bubbly. Simple!

Tips for the roasted cabbage steaks recipe
- When buying green cabbage for this recipe, ensure it is fresh and crisp. Look for a cabbage head that is compact and feels heavy for its size. It means the cabbage slices will hold better. You could also try this cabbage recipe with savoy cabbage, but the leaves tend to go off pretty easily.
- This cabbage steak recipe is a naturally vegetarian main course.
- Try adding onion powder, garlic powder, or fresh garlic to the sauce.
- Feel free to use fresh mozzarella slices instead of shredded ones.
- Any melting cheese will work in this roasted cabbage steak recipe instead of mozzarella. Experiment with Gruyère, a 4-cheese blend, or even mix in some feta!

How long should cabbage cook?
How long to roast cabbage depends on how you want it: melt-in-your-mouth-tender or crisp-tender? The more you cook the cabbage, the softer the wedges will become. We count about 30 minutes for crisp-tender, but around 20 minutes could work fine.
