These roasted cabbage wedges are crispy and caramelized around the edges and soft in the centers. Easy and delicious, this will be your new favorite way to eat cabbage!
Lay cabbage wedges on baking sheet and drizzle ½ tablespoon of the olive oil over one side of the cabbage wedges. Sprinkle half of the salt and pepper over the tops.
Carefully turn the cabbage slices over and top with the remaining olive oil, salt, and pepper.
Roast for 15 minutes. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and carefully flip the cabbage wedges over. Place the baking sheet back in the oven and roast for an additional 12-15 minutes more.
Remove from the oven and enjoy immediately as is or with any additional toppings, if using.
Notes
Uniform Wedges: Cut the cabbage into even wedges to ensure consistent cooking.
Thickness of Wedges: Adjust the cooking time based on the thickness of your cabbage wedges. Thinner slices will cook faster, while thicker ones will need more time in the oven.
Don't Overcrowd: Arrange the wedges in a single layer with space between them for even roasting.
Flip Halfway: Turn the wedges halfway through cooking for an even crisp.
Doubling the Recipe: This recipe scales up easily. To serve more, simply double the ingredients and follow the same cooking process.
Embrace the Char: Don't discard the charred edges of the cabbage. These crispy bits are packed with flavor and are often considered the tastiest part of the dish.
