Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium head green cabbage
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 0.5 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 stalks green onions
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
Instructions
Begin by prepping the vegetables. Slice the cabbage into thin shreds, about 1/4 inch thick. Mince the garlic cloves and slice the green onions thinly, separating the white and green parts.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the minced garlic to the pan and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Add the shredded cabbage to the skillet and stir-fry for 5-7 minutes, or until the cabbage is tender yet still a bit crisp.
Stir in the soy sauce, sesame oil, red pepper flakes, sea salt, and black pepper. Continue to stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes, ensuring the cabbage is well coated with the seasonings.
Add the white parts of the sliced green onions and cook for an additional minute.
Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the stir-fried cabbage to a serving dish.
Garnish with the green parts of the sliced onions and sprinkle the sesame seeds on top.
Serve immediately as a side dish or pair with your favorite keto protein for a complete meal.
