Sheet-Pan Golabki with Crispy Fries & Slaw

Step 1

Boil whole cabbage in salted water for 8 minutes until outer leaves soften. Remove, cool slightly, peel off 8 leaves, and set aside.

Step 2

Brown ground beef in a skillet over medium-high heat, breaking it up with a spoon, until no pink remains, about 5 minutes. Stir in rice.

Step 3

Place a cabbage leaf, lay 3 tbsp beef-rice mixture at one end, roll tightly (fold sides inward), and repeat with remaining leaves and filling.

Step 4

Spread 1 cup crushed tomatoes on a sheet pan. Arrange 8 cabbage rolls seam-side down. Pour remaining tomato sauce over rolls.

Step 5

Cut potatoes into 1/4-inch matchsticks. Toss with 2 tbsp oil and salt on the sheet pan alongside the rolls.

Step 6

Bake at 400°F for 15 minutes until fries are golden and rolls are heated through. Meanwhile, toss shredded cabbage with vinegar, sugar, and salt.
