Ingredients
  

1 large green cabbage, cut into wedges

3 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon sea salt

½ teaspoon black pepper

¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese (optional for topping)

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    Wash the cabbage and remove any outer leaves that are wilted. Cut the cabbage into wedges, ensuring they remain intact at the core.

      In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, garlic powder, smoked paprika, dried thyme, sea salt, and black pepper.

        Place the cabbage wedges on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush the oil mixture generously over each wedge, making sure to coat all sides.

          If using, sprinkle the grated Parmesan cheese evenly on top of the wedges for added flavor.

            Bake in the preheated oven for 25–30 minutes, or until the edges of the cabbage are golden brown and crispy.

              Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving.

                Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and flavor.
