Why You'll Love Making This
This dish combines the smoky flavor of bacon with the natural sweetness of roasted cabbage. It’s a comforting side that feels hearty but is easy to prepare. The glaze adds a perfect balance of savory and slightly sweet notes, making it a crowd-pleaser.

Directions
Lightly heat your oven to 425°F (220°C). In a small bowl, whisk together the bacon, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Lay each cabbage quarter on a large piece of aluminum foil—big enough to wrap it up completely. Spoon the bacon mixture evenly over each piece, making sure it’s well coated, then wrap the foil tightly around the cabbage. Place the wrapped cabbage on a baking sheet and pop it in the oven. Let it roast for about 20 to 30 minutes, until the cabbage is tender and warmed through. Once it’s done, carefully unwrap and enjoy!
Serving Advice
Serve alongside roasted potatoes or a simple grain like quinoa for a complete meal. It pairs well with grilled chicken or pork, adding a smoky vegetable component that brightens the plate. A fresh green salad on the side can add some crunch and freshness.
Storing This Dish
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the oven or microwave to keep the cabbage tender and the bacon crispy. Avoid freezing, as the texture of the cabbage may become watery after thawing.
