Cabbage Steaks with Pepper-Creamy Sauce

6 servings

30 minutes

The cabbage is first baked and then quickly fried in a pan to get a delicious crust and smoky flavor. The creamy pepper sauce is the perfect balance of tenderness and spiciness. The steaks can easily be made vegetarian if you replace the chicken broth (needed for the sauce) with vegetable broth.
