Ingredients
Scale
- 1 large green cabbage, outer leaves removed
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 2 cloves garlic, finely grated
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons chopped parsley
- Lemon wedges, for serving
- 3 tablespoons tahini, optional
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice, optional
- 1 small garlic clove, grated, optional
- 2 to 3 tablespoons warm water, optional
- Pinch of salt, optional
Instructions
- Heat the grill to medium-high and oil the grates well.
- Slice the cabbage through the core into 3/4-inch to 1-inch steaks.
- Mix olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, smoked paprika, cumin, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
- Brush both sides of each cabbage steak with the seasoned oil.
- Grill the cabbage steaks for 5 to 6 minutes per side.
- Flip carefully with a wide spatula or tongs until the edges are charred and the centers are tender.
- Whisk tahini, lemon juice, garlic, warm water, and salt until smooth if using the drizzle.
- Finish the cabbage with parsley, lemon wedges, and tahini drizzle.
Notes
- Fridge: Store cooked steaks in an airtight container for 3 days. Keep drizzle separate for best texture.
- Freezer: Freezing is not recommended because cabbage releases water after thawing and loses its grilled texture.
- Oven Reheat: Warm on a sheet pan at 375 degrees F for 8 minutes until the edges firm again.
- Microwave Reheat: Use short 45-second bursts only when speed matters, because the texture softens quickly.
- Air Fryer Reheat: Reheat at 350 degrees F for 5 minutes for the best leftover edge texture.
