Creating roasted cabbage steaks is incredibly easy when you follow these steps:

1. Preheat Your Oven: Set your oven to 425°F (220°C) to ensure it’s hot enough to roast the cabbage steaks properly.

2. Prepare the Cabbage: Remove any damaged outer leaves from the cabbage head. Cut it in half, then slice each half into 1-inch thick “steaks.” Aim for at least three to four steaks per half.

3. Season the Steaks: Place the cabbage steaks on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle olive oil over each steak, ensuring they are well-coated. Sprinkle salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika evenly over the steaks.

4. Arrange on Baking Sheet: Turn the steaks to ensure both sides are seasoned. Arrange them on the baking sheet so that they aren’t crowded; this allows for even roasting.

5. Roast in Oven: Put the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast for 25-30 minutes. Keep an eye on them; you want the edges to become crisp and browned while the center remains tender.

6. Flip the Steaks: About halfway through roasting, gently flip the steaks using a spatula to ensure even cooking and browning on both sides.

7. Garnish and Serve: Remove the cabbage steaks from the oven once they are golden brown. Garnish with fresh herbs before serving.

By following these steps, you’ll achieve perfectly roasted cabbage steaks every time.
