CABBAGE STEAKS RECIPE (GRILLED OR ROASTED!)

Steps:

• Place the slices of bacon onto a large, cold pan. Place on the stove and turn to medium-low heat. Fry the bacon for 8-10 minutes, until crispy, flipping as needed.
• Meanwhile, cut the cabbage into 3/4-in (2 cm) thick slices.
• In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, sea salt, and black pepper.
• Remove the bacon from the pan and set aside to drain, leaving behind the bacon fat in the pan. Add the minced garlic and saute for about a minute, until fragrant.
• Let the pan with bacon fat cool for 5-10 minutes. When the bacon fat has cooled enough to not melt the plastic, pour the bacon fat (along with the sauteed garlic) into the plastic bag. Scoop any remaining garlic with a spatula and add it in. Seal and mix well to form the marinade.
• Add the sliced cabbage steaks to the marinade bag. Coat well. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat the grill at medium heat.
• Grill cabbage steaks for about 4-8 minutes on each side, until tender and crispy on the edges.
• To serve, top with cooked bacon and parsley for garnish (optional).
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (218 degrees C).
• Grease a large baking sheet well. (You can line with foil or parchment paper if you prefer. Arrange the cabbage steaks in a single layer.
• Roast cabbage steaks in the oven for about 30-35 minutes, until tender and crispy on the edges.
• To serve, top with cooked bacon and parsley for garnish (optional).
