Ingredients

• 1 medium head Green cabbage
• 1 large Yellow onion
• 4 cloves Garlic cloves
• 3 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Sugar
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Start by preparing the ingredients: slice the cabbage into thin strips (discard the core), thinly slice the onion, and mince the garlic cloves.

Step 2

Heat a large skillet or sauté pan over medium heat. Add the olive oil and butter to the pan and swirl until the butter is melted and combined.

Step 3

Add the sliced onion to the pan and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it becomes soft and golden brown.

Step 4

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes, being careful not to let it burn.

Step 5

Add the sliced cabbage to the pan in batches if needed, stirring to coat it with the onion and garlic mixture. Continue to cook for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage begins to soften and caramelize.

Step 6

Sprinkle the cabbage with salt, black pepper, and sugar. Stir well to combine.

Step 7

Add the apple cider vinegar, stirring to deglaze the pan and coat the cabbage evenly. Let the vinegar cook off for about 1-2 minutes, leaving a tangy flavor behind.

Step 8

Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. If you prefer softer cabbage, cook for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 9

Remove from heat and garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a burst of color and freshness.

Step 10

Serve warm as a side dish or enjoy it with crusty bread as a light main course.
