Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
Remove the outer leaves from the red cabbage and slice the cabbage into 1/2-inch thick rounds to create cabbage steaks.
Place the cabbage slices in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
Drizzle olive oil and balsamic vinegar evenly over the cabbage slices.
In a small bowl, mix together the garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper. Sprinkle this mixture over the cabbage rounds.
Scatter fresh thyme leaves over the top of the seasoned cabbage.
Roast the cabbage in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, flipping halfway through, until tender and edges are slightly charred.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
Serve warm as a side dish, garnished with additional fresh thyme if desired.
