Ingredients

  • 1 large cabbage (about 2-3 pounds)
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese (or Pecorino Romano for a sharper flavor)
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme (or 1 teaspoon fresh thyme)
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary (or 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary)
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano (or 1 teaspoon fresh oregano)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 cup vegetable or chicken broth

Optional Add-Ins

  • Pinch of red pepper flakes (for a spicy kick)
  • Nutritional yeast (as a vegan substitute for Parmesan)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cabbage: Remove the outer leaves of the cabbage and cut out the core, creating a cavity in the center for the seasoning.
  2. Make the Garlic Mixture: In a small bowl, combine the minced garlic, grated Parmesan cheese, olive oil, thyme, rosemary, oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  3. Season the Cabbage: Rub the garlic and cheese mixture generously inside the cavity and all over the outer leaves of the cabbage.
  4. Cook in the Slow Cooker: Place the seasoned cabbage in the slow cooker. Pour the vegetable or chicken broth around the cabbage (not directly on top).
  5. Slow Cook: Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours, or until the cabbage is tender and easily pierced with a fork.
  6. Rest and Slice: Once cooked, carefully remove the cabbage from the slow cooker and let it rest for 5-10 minutes. Slice it into wedges.
  7. Serve: Serve warm, spooning any remaining broth from the slow cooker over the cabbage for extra flavor.

Tips & Variations

  • Cheese Swap: Use Pecorino Romano instead of Parmesan for a sharper, tangier flavor.
  • Spice It Up: Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the garlic mixture for a subtle heat.
  • Fresh Herbs: If you have fresh herbs on hand, use 1 teaspoon each of fresh thyme, rosemary, and oregano instead of dried.
  • Vegan Option: Replace the Parmesan cheese with nutritional yeast for a dairy-free, cheesy flavor.
  • Extra Flavor: Add a splash of lemon juice or a drizzle of balsamic glaze before serving for a bright, tangy finish.

Enjoy this tender, flavorful cabbage as a side dish or a light main course—it’s a game-changer!
