Crispy Cabbage Steaks Feta Balsamic

Golden, crispy cabbage steaks crowned with rich feta and bright balsamic. A simple yet vibrant side dish, perfect for any occasion.

# What You'll Need:

01 - 1 large green cabbage, outer leaves removed

02 - 2 tablespoons olive oil

03 - 1/2 teaspoon sea salt

04 - 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

05 - 3.5 oz feta cheese, crumbled

06 - 3 tablespoons balsamic glaze

07 - 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped

08 - 1 teaspoon lemon zest

01 - Preheat the oven to 425°F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.

02 - Remove any tough outer leaves from the cabbage. Slice the cabbage into 4 thick steaks, about 1 inch each.

03 - Arrange cabbage steaks in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.

04 - Brush both sides of each cabbage steak with olive oil. Season evenly with salt and pepper.

05 - Roast for 20 minutes until edges begin to golden.

06 - Flip carefully and roast for another 8-10 minutes until golden and crispy at the edges.

07 - Remove from the oven. Immediately sprinkle crumbled feta over the hot cabbage steaks.

08 - Drizzle generously with balsamic glaze. Garnish with parsley and lemon zest if desired. Serve warm.

01 -

The contrast between crispy caramelized edges and tender sweet centers is absolutely addictive
People who swear they hate cabbage keep asking for seconds, which still makes me laugh every single time
It comes together with almost zero active cooking time, letting your oven do all the heavy lifting while you handle other parts of the meal

02 -

The steaks will want to fall apart as they cook, and that's completely normal so don't stress about keeping them picture-perfect
Flipping halfway through is non-negotiable for getting that crispy texture on both sides instead of just one

03 -

Let the cabbage steaks rest for a few minutes after roasting so they firm up slightly and are easier to move without breaking
If your balsamic glaze is too thick, warm it gently for 10 seconds in the microwave to make it drizzle-worthy
