Ingredients
- 1 medium head Green cabbage
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Red pepper flakes (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Remove the outer leaves of the cabbage if they are damaged. Cut the cabbage in half, remove the core, and thinly slice the cabbage into shreds.
Step 2
Peel and mince the garlic cloves.
Step 3
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and butter, allowing the butter to melt and combine with the oil.
Step 4
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
Step 5
Add the shredded cabbage to the skillet in batches if necessary, stirring to coat evenly in the oil and butter.
Step 6
Sprinkle the cabbage with salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using). Stir to combine.
Step 7
Cook the cabbage for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it is tender and has developed light caramelized spots. Adjust the heat as needed to prevent burning.
Step 8
Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt or pepper, if desired.
Step 9
Finish with a sprinkle of fresh parsley for added color and flavor, if using.
Step 10
Serve immediately as a side dish or pair with your favorite protein for a complete meal.
