Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 head Green cabbage
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 1 medium Yellow onion
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 teaspoons Apple cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Remove the outer leaves of the cabbage if they are wilted or damaged. Cut the cabbage into quarters, remove the core, and slice each quarter into thin strips about 1/4-inch thick.
Peel and finely dice the yellow onion. Peel and mince the garlic cloves.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter in a large skillet or sauté pan over medium heat.
Add the diced onion to the skillet and sauté until softened and translucent, about 4-5 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant, taking care not to burn it.
Add the sliced cabbage to the skillet in batches if necessary, stirring to combine after each addition. Cook for 6-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage begins to soften and slightly caramelize.
Sprinkle paprika, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper evenly over the cabbage. Stir well to combine and cook for another 5-6 minutes, letting the flavors meld together.
Pour in the apple cider vinegar and stir. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to deglaze the pan and add a hint of tanginess.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Remove from heat.
Transfer the cabbage to a serving dish and garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired.
Serve warm as a side dish or enjoy on its own for a light and flavorful meal.
