NANA'S FRIED CABBAGE



Nana's Fried Cabbage image

This is my Nana's recipe, taught to me when I was little. She used Rotel tomatoes, but I can't take the spicyness. So, I updated her recipe, and later learned that I could "steam" chicken breast strips, (at the end of Step 1) and make a complete one-skillet meal for the family. I actually make this when we're camping, and...

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 medium head of cabbage, shredded
1 large onions, yellow, chopped
1 3/4 Tbsp olive oil, light
2 c pace picante sauce
1 1/4 c monterey jack cheese, shredded
dash(es) salt and pepper

Steps:

  • 1. In a large (12" or larger) skillet heat the olive oil over medium heat and add onions, then the cabbage. Lightly salt and then cover the skillet.
  • 2. Allow the cabbage to "sweat and wilt" - the onions will be clear, and the cabbage will be translucent when done. You may want to stir gently with a wooden spatula to keep either cabbage or onions from sticking.
  • 3. Add Pace Picante sauce - your choice of "heat" - mild, medium or hot. When thoroughly heated, turn off heat, sprinkle cheese over top of the mixture and cover again until cheese is melted. Serve.

SAUTéED CABBAGE AND ONIONS

Steps:

  • I find that when I buy a good-sized green cabbage and use a small amount in a recipe, the remainder often languishes in the fridge. This is an ideal way to use up green cabbage while it still has some flavor. For this preparation, you can use half or even most of a cabbage. In a large skillet or stir-fry pan, sauté a quartered and thinly sliced onion in some olive oil. When it starts to turn golden, stir in thinly sliced cabbage. Cook, covered, until the cabbage wilts. If the pan dries out, add just enough water to moisten. Once the cabbage is wilted, uncover and cook until both the cabbage and onion begin to brown, stirring frequently. Add a sprinkling of poppy seeds, if you like.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cabbage: Select a firm, dense cabbage with tightly packed leaves for the best texture and flavor.
  • Slice the cabbage thinly: This will help it cook evenly and quickly.
  • Use a large skillet or wok: This will give the cabbage plenty of room to cook without overcrowding.
  • Cook the cabbage over high heat: This will help it caramelize and develop a slightly crispy texture.
  • Add the onions and pineapple at the end of cooking: This will prevent them from becoming overcooked and mushy.
  • Season the cabbage to taste: Use salt, pepper, and other spices to taste.
  • Serve the cabbage immediately: It is best enjoyed hot and fresh.

Conclusion:

Nanas' Fried Cabbage and Onions is a simple yet flavorful dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences.
