Cups - Metric

Instructions

Place cabbage on a cutting board and cut off the root end to create a flat surface. Slice the cabbage into ¾ inch slices.
Zest and juice the lemon. You should have 3 teaspoons of zest and 3 tablespoons of juice.
Combine the olive oil with seasonings, the lemon zest, and the lemon juice. Brush on both sides of the cabbage slices.

Oven Roasted

Oven Roasted: Preheat oven to 400°F/200°C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Place herbed cabbage slices on the parchment paper-lined pan. Roast for 25 minutes, using tongs to flip them about half way through. They should be golden around the edges.

Grilled Cabbage Steaks

Preheat grill to 350°F/175°C and brush grates with oil to prevent sticking.
Place cabbage steaks on the grill and cook for 5 to 6 minutes. Use tongs to flip and brush additional seasoning as necessary. Cook until crispy and golden-brown outside and tender on the inside.

For the Creamy Sauce:

Combine the ingredients in a bowl and stir to combine.

For Serving:

Place cooked cabbage steaks on a plate and drizzle with the creamy sauce. Top with crumbled vegan bacon.
