Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, sautéing until the onion is translucent.
Add the ground beef, cooking until browned. Drain excess fat if necessary.
Stir in the chopped cabbage, cooking until it begins to soften, about 5-7 minutes.
Pour in the heavy cream, adding paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and let simmer for another 5 minutes.
Transfer the mixture to a greased 9×13 inch baking dish. Top with shredded cheddar cheese and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.

Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before serving.
