Description

Baked Cabbage Steaks with Minced Meat and Herb Cream are a hearty, oven-baked dish combining tender cabbage slices, seasoned ground meat, and a creamy herb topping. This low-carb, protein-rich meal is both comforting and nutritious.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 large green cabbage, sliced into thick rounds (about 6 slices)
  • 500g (1.1 lbs) ground beef or mixed minced meat
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • Olive oil for brushing
  • Herb Cream Topping:
  • 1 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons fresh dill or parsley, finely chopped
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
  2. Place cabbage slices on the tray and brush lightly with olive oil.
  3. In a bowl, combine minced meat with onion, garlic, paprika, oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
  4. Scoop the meat mixture and spread it evenly over each cabbage round.
  5. In another bowl, mix the sour cream with dill, garlic, salt, and pepper to create the herb topping.
  6. Spread a generous spoonful of the herb cream over the meat layer.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 35–40 minutes or until the meat is cooked through and the cream topping is lightly golden.
  8. Garnish with extra herbs if desired and serve hot.

Notes

  • Use Greek yogurt for a higher-protein, lower-fat topping.
  • Switch ground beef with turkey or chicken for a leaner version.
  • Fresh herbs give the best flavor, but dried herbs can be substituted in smaller amounts.
  • Leftovers store well and are great for meal prep.
