This post may contain affiliate links to help keep this content free. (full disclosure)

We had a BBQ on Memorial Day weekend and I was so excited to do it Cabbage Steak Recipe again. I admit that my friends do real BBQ, but I came up with the recipe and watched the time. (Totally important, right?) And, I’m happy to report, Grilled Cabbage Steak result and Oven Roasted Cabbage Steak Versions I’ve made in the past. I’ll show you how to make both versions!

What is Cabbage Steak?

Cabbage steaks are thick slices of cabbage that can be grilled, grilled or even fried. Today I’ll show you how to make the grilled and grilled versions.

If you haven’t tried baked cabbage chips before, you might be wondering, are they delicious? (Of course.) Is cabbage steak healthy? (Exactly.) Rather than being mushy or lifeless like you’d expect cooked vegetables to be, these are caramelized and crispy around the edges.

ingredients you need

This section explains how to choose the best ingredients for your bacon cabbage steak, what each ingredient does in the recipe, and substitution options. See recipe card below for measurements.

• bacon – I ordered the clean ingredient bacon from here, but either will do. However, do not use precooked as we will be using bacon grease for the marinade.if you want one vegetarian option, omit the bacon and increase the olive oil in the recipe by 2 tablespoons.
• cabbage – I prefer green cabbage for this recipe, but red cabbage will work too if you like. Any size head of cabbage will work. Just make sure you remove the outer leaves.
• garlic – Use fresh garlic for best flavor or canned garlic for convenience.
• olive oil – or avocado oil.
• lemon juice – Use fresh lemon juice for best flavor or bottled For convenience. Acidity contributes to flavor and softness. To change it up, try using balsamic vinegar instead of juice.
• sea ​​salt (or kosher salt) & Black pepper

How to Cut Cabbage Steak

1. Cut off the core. Cut off the bottom of the core (root) of the cabbage head to create a flat surface on one side.
2. piece. Hold the flat surface against the cutting board and slice down from the top to make slices 3/4-inch thick. You can also make 1-inch slices if you want, but I prefer a little thinner to maximize caramelization.

Pickling Instructions

1. mixed marinade. In a large plastic bag, combine olive oil, lemon juice, sea salt, and black pepper.
2. Add bacon fat. Once the bacon is cooked, remove it from the pan. Let the bacon oil cool slightly, then pour into the marinade bag. Blend until combined.
3. pickled. Add the cabbage to the marinade and coat well. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Tip: If you are in a hurry, you can skip the marinating time.

Instead, just toss the marinade in a small bowl and brush the marinade on both sides of the cabbage steak. However, I have found that they are more delicious if you have time to marinate for 30 minutes.

How to Make Roasted Cabbage Steaks in the Oven

1. Prepare. Preheat oven and grease a large baking sheet (line with foil first if you prefer).
2. arrange. Spread the rolls menu layers on the baking sheet so they don’t touch each other.
3. bake. Roast cabbage steak in the oven. Sprinkle with salt to taste. You can also add fresh herbs at the end or even sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
