Description
Garlic Parmesan Melted Cabbage is a simple yet flavor-packed side dish that transforms humble cabbage into golden, buttery perfection with crispy edges, tender centers, and loads of savory garlic and cheese.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 medium green cabbage, cut into thick wedges
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a small bowl, combine melted butter, olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper.
- Arrange cabbage wedges on the baking sheet, flat side down, leaving space between each piece.
- Brush each wedge with the garlic butter mixture, coating all sides.
