Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Remove any damaged outer leaves from the red cabbage and cut it into 1-inch thick slices or wedges, keeping them intact.
Place the cabbage slices on a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic cloves, salt, and black pepper.
Brush the olive oil mixture generously over both sides of each cabbage slice to ensure an even coating.
Sprinkle the fresh thyme over the top of the cabbage slices for added aroma and flavor.
Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and roast the cabbage for 35-40 minutes, or until the edges are crispy and caramelized and the center is tender.
Remove from the oven and let the roasted cabbage rest for a few minutes before serving.
Serve as a side dish or a light main course. Enjoy your healthy and delicious low-carb roasted red cabbage!
