This Crispy Parmesan Roasted Cabbage is a fast, low-effort side dish that hits that salty, crispy, cheesy sweet spot. We’re making it on repeat. The method is simple: cabbage slices roast directly on little piles of seasoned Parmesan cheese, which melts, crisps up, and fuses to the bottom of the cabbage. The result? Golden, lacy edges, roasted centers, and just enough Italian seasoning to make it all pop.
You only need a few ingredients, but the flavor is big. These are best hot out of the oven, with crispy cheese on one side and tender cabbage on the other. It’s a great match for roasted chicken, Italian sausage, or even just a bowl of soup.
Helpful Tips
- Use fresh Parmesan—not the shelf-stable kind – Pre-grated or powdered Parmesan doesn’t melt or crisp the same way. Grate it fresh yourself for best results, ideally from a block of fresh Parmigiano Reggiano. You can get a large wedge of this at Costco for a great price!
- Cut your cabbage slices thick – About 1-inch thick slices hold up best in the oven and give you that contrast between crispy edges and tender middle. Thin slices can burn before the cheese crisps.
- Don’t skip the parchment – This isn’t the time to wing it with foil or just grease the pan. Parchment paper is key to making sure the Parmesan crisps up and releases easily.

Ingredients
- 3 thick slices cabbage (1" thick) cut into 3 pieces each
- 1 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons olive oil plus more for the other side
- 2 teaspoons Italian herbs (oregano, basil, thyme)
- Chopped fresh parsley optional
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- On the baking sheet, create 6 piles of Parmesan, seasoning, and olive oil. Mix to create a paste and flatten. Place a cabbage slice onto each pile. Drizzle the tops with a little more oil and seasoning.
- Place the cabbage in the oven for 16-19 minutes, until browned all the way around. Remove from the oven and cool for 2 minutes so they cheese can adhere to the cabbage (this is important!), then flip the slices over. Bake for another 10 minutes.
- To serve, top with parsley.

This is really good. I’m always looking for ways to make cabbage and this is just different, in a good way. The parm needs to be really fine I think for it to melt well and don’t skip the parchment paper. It’s necessary! Thanks for the recepe.
Thanks Carl! Glad you enjoyed it.
