Ingredients

• 1 medium head Green cabbage
• 4 tablespoons Olive oil
• 3 Garlic cloves
• 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 100 grams Feta cheese
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Step 2

Remove any damaged outer leaves from the cabbage. Slice the cabbage into 1-inch thick rounds, aiming for 4-5 slices depending on the size of the cabbage.

Step 3

Mince the garlic cloves finely. In a small bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, oregano, thyme, salt, and pepper. Mix well to create the marinade.

Step 4

Brush both sides of each cabbage steak generously with the marinade, ensuring they are well-coated.

Step 5

Place the cabbage steaks on the preheated grill grate. Grill each side for about 10-15 minutes, or until charred and tender. Use a wide spatula to carefully flip them halfway through the grilling process.

Step 6

While the cabbage is grilling, crumble the feta cheese and chop the fresh parsley.

Step 7

Once the cabbage steaks are done, transfer them to a serving platter. Top with crumbled feta cheese and freshly chopped parsley.

Step 8

Serve immediately while hot as a side dish or enjoy as a light vegetarian main dish.
