Baked Cabbage and Onions is a simple to prepare, low carb, Keto, gluten free side dish the whole family will enjoy.
I love cabbage–and onions–so Baked Cabbage and Onions is one of my favorite recipes.
Hubby isn’t as crazy about cabbage or onions but he really likes it too. It is just yummy!
I cook it so it is good and soft. If you like a firmer cabbage, just reduce the cooking time.
By lining the pan with foil, the cleanup is easy too.
This is especially great with beef or chicken. Try it with:
Grilled Marinated London Broil
Coconut Buttermilk Southwestern Chicken
Grilled Citrus Chicken Freezer Meal
It is pictured here with Velvet Pork Chops and Low Carb Jalapeno Biscuits.

Ingredients:
1 medium head of cabbage
1 medium onion
8 oz butter
1 Tbsp salt
1/2 Tbsp pepper
1/2 Tbsp garlic powder
Instructions:
Line a 9×13 baking dish with two sheets of aluminum foil, one going each direction; enough that it will fold around the cabbage and onion to cook. Spray it with non stick spray.
Cut cabbage in half and half again so you have quarters. Cut out the core and then slice it about ¼ inch thick. The thinner you slice it, the faster it will cook. Cut the ends off of the onion, peel, and slice it thinly.
Arrange the cabbage in the pan and put the onion slices between. You won’t have an onion slice for each spot but just space them evenly throughout.
Slice the stick of butter thinly (this is easiest if it is cold) and put it throughout the cabbage slices too.
Sprinkle with salt, pepper and garlic powder.
Tuck the foil around it and bake in a preheated 450 degree oven for about an hour. Check with a fork to see how soft it is. You may want it a little less than an hour for a firmer cabbage or a little more for very soft.
Serve with chicken, pork, fish or beef or enjoy it on its own
