Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 head Green cabbage
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Liquid smoke
- 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.25 cups Water
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Remove any damaged outer leaves of the cabbage and cut it into bite-sized pieces, discarding the core.
Heat a large skillet or sauté pan over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the cabbage to the pan and sauté for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it starts to soften.
In a small bowl, mix the liquid smoke, kosher salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder with the water to create a seasoning liquid.
Pour the seasoning mixture over the cabbage and stir well to ensure all the pieces are evenly coated.
Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the pan with a lid, and let the cabbage cook for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it is tender but still slightly crisp.
Remove the lid and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to evaporate any excess liquid and allow the flavors to concentrate.
Taste the cabbage and adjust the seasoning with more salt or pepper, if needed.
Transfer the cabbage to a serving dish and garnish with fresh parsley, if desired. Serve hot.
