Steps:

• Heat butter in large pan on medium-high heat until melted and foamy.
• Add diced onions to pan, cook until soft and transparent, about 4 minutes. Stir to prevent sticking or burning.
• Add garlic and cabbage to the pan, tossing evenly to coat in butter.
• Generously season with salt and pepper.
• Let cabbage reduce by half, about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally as it cooks down to prevent burning and allow it to cook evenly. Add bacon back to pan.
• When cabbage has lost much of it's volume and started to turn shiny, slightly translucent, and has lovely browned bits, it is ready to serve.
• Serve immediately.
• Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to four days, three months in the freezer.
