Ingredients

• 1 medium head Green cabbage
• 2 tablespoons Avocado oil (or olive oil)
• 3 cloves Garlic cloves
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce (or coconut aminos for gluten-free)
• 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
• 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
• 2 stalks Green onions (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Remove any damaged outer leaves from the cabbage. Cut the cabbage in half, remove the core, and thinly slice into long shreds.

Step 2

Peel and mince the garlic cloves.

Step 3

Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the avocado oil and allow it to heat for 30 seconds.

Step 4

Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.

Step 5

Add the shredded cabbage to the skillet and stir well to combine with the garlic and oil. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage begins to soften and turn slightly translucent.

Step 6

In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce (or coconut aminos), rice vinegar, sesame oil, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper.

Step 7

Pour the sauce mixture over the cabbage and toss to coat evenly. Cook for another 3-5 minutes until the cabbage is tender and absorbs the flavors.

Step 8

Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Add more salt or pepper to preference.

Step 9

Transfer the stir-fried cabbage to a serving dish. Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions, if desired.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy! This stir fry pairs well with grilled chicken, shrimp, or tofu for a complete keto meal.
