Ingredients
  • 1 medium head Green Cabbage
  • 3 tablespoons Olive Oil
  • 3 cloves, minced Garlic
  • 1 teaspoon Dried Thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon Dried Rosemary
  • 1/2 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon Black Pepper
  • 1 tablespoon (optional) Lemon Juice

Preparation

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

Cutting the Cabbage

Carefully cut the cabbage in half through the core. Place each half cut-side down and cut into wedges, about 1-inch thick. You should get about 6-8 wedges per half, depending on the size of your cabbage.

Seasoning the Wedges

In a large bowl, whisk together the olive oil, minced garlic, dried thyme, dried rosemary, salt, and pepper. Add the cabbage wedges to the bowl and toss to coat evenly. Make sure each wedge is well coated with the oil and spice mixture.

Roasting the Cabbage

Arrange the cabbage wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet. Make sure they are not overcrowded to ensure even roasting. Roast for 30-35 minutes, or until the cabbage is tender and the edges are nicely browned and caramelized. Flip the cabbage wedges halfway through roasting for even cooking.

Serving

Remove the roasted cabbage wedges from the oven and transfer them to a serving dish. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the wedges (optional) for added brightness and flavor. Serve immediately as a side dish.

FAQ

  • Can I use different herbs?

    Yes, feel free to experiment with different herbs such as oregano, sage, or parsley. Fresh herbs can also be used, but you may need to add them closer to the end of the cooking time to prevent them from burning.
  • How do I store leftover roasted cabbage?

    Store leftover roasted cabbage in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave before serving.
  • Can I add other vegetables to roast with the cabbage?

    Absolutely! Other root vegetables like carrots, potatoes, or parsnips would be a great addition. Consider adding them at the beginning of the roasting time as they may take longer to cook than the cabbage.
