For n≥2, apply a Hadamard gate to one qubit, then controlled-NOTs from it to all others. Replacing each controlled-NOT gate by a target Hadamard, a Controlled-Z gate, and another target Hadamard uses 1+3(n−1) allowed gates. Each one-qubit reduced state is I/2, proving entanglement across each qubit-versus-rest bipartition.
