Ingredients

1 large head green cabbage
¼ cup olive oil
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
4 tablespoons ranch dressing
4 slices cooked bacon, crumbled

Steps:

Cut cabbage in half through the core. Discard any loose leaves. Cut two 3/4-inch steaks from each half of cabbage.
Whisk olive oil, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl. Brush oil over one side of each steak and let sit for 5 minutes to absorb. Flip steaks over and brush with remaining oil.
Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
Place steaks directly on the grate and grill for 5 minutes. Using tongs, carefully flip the steaks over and grill for 5 minutes more.
Transfer steaks to serving plates. Drizzle 1 tablespoon ranch dressing over each and top with crumbled bacon.
