Ingredients
- 8 ounces Whole-grain egg noodles
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 medium Yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 4 cups Green cabbage, roughly chopped
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 0.75 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons Paprika
- 0.33 cups Low-sodium vegetable broth
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the whole-grain egg noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.
Step 2
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onion and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly golden.
Step 3
Add the chopped cabbage to the skillet and stir to combine. Cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage begins to wilt and slightly caramelize.
Step 4
Stir in the minced garlic, salt, ground black pepper, and paprika. Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Step 5
Pour the vegetable broth into the skillet and stir. Cover and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the cabbage is tender and the liquid has reduced slightly.
Step 6
Add the cooked noodles to the skillet and toss to combine with the cabbage mixture. Cook for 2-3 minutes to warm everything through.
Step 7
Taste and adjust seasonings, if necessary. Remove from heat and garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
Step 8
Serve warm and enjoy your healthy version of cabbage and noodles!
