Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 small green cabbage* (about 2-3lb.)
- 1 small yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 ½ teaspoon Creole or Cajun seasoning**
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- ¼ cup chicken broth
- pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
- Cut the cabbage in half and then into quarters. Slice each quarter into roughly ¼ - ½-inch thin strips, cutting around the core. Add the cabbage strips to a colander, rinse with water, and drain well. Next slice the onion into thin slices and mince the garlic cloves.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat. Add the onion slices to the skillet. Sauté for 3-4 minutes just until the onion becomes translucent. Add the minced garlic and sauté for an additional 30 seconds.
- Now add half of the sliced cabbage to the skillet. Toss the cabbage with the onions and garlic for 1 minute, then add the second half of the cabbage to the skillet and toss to combine.
- Add the Creole seasoning, garlic powder, and smoked paprika to the skillet. Toss and mix together with the cabbage. Now pour in the chicken broth. Mix and toss the cabbage making sure it’s coated with the spices and broth.
- Continue cooking the cabbage, stirring and tossing occasionally, until it is tender and most of the liquid has evaporated. This should take roughly 10-12 minutes. Now give the cabbage a taste and adjust the seasoning to your liking. I added roughly ⅛ teaspoon of salt and black pepper and a pinch of crushed red pepper after tasting. Serve with your favorite meal and enjoy!
Notes
- Try to find a small green cabbage at your grocery store that’s roughly 2-3 lbs. Or you can simply use just half of a large cabbage for this recipe.
- Most Creole and Cajun seasonings have plenty of salt in them, so I didn't add any extra salt to this recipe.
