Ingredients

Cabbage
1 large green cabbage, cut into 1-inch thick rounds
3 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp smoked paprika
Salt and pepper
Topping
Balsamic glaze
Crumbled bacon
Shaved Parmesan
Fresh chives

Equipment

  • Air Fryer Parchment Liners

Steps

  1. 1

    Cut cabbage into 1-inch thick rounds, keeping the core intact to hold them together.

  2. 2

    Brush both sides with olive oil. Season with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.

  3. 3

    Air fry at 400°F for 12-14 minutes, flipping halfway, until charred on edges and tender in the center.

  4. 4

    Drizzle with balsamic glaze. Top with crumbled bacon, Parmesan, and chives.

  5. 5

    Serve as a side dish or light main course.

💡

Tip: Keep the core intact — it's the glue that holds the steak together. Cut thick (1 inch minimum) or they fall apart. The charred edges are what make cabbage steaks special. They should be tender but not mushy — a slight bite in the center is perfect.
