Provided by Erin Clarke / Well Plated

Categories     Side Dish

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 small head green cabbage (about 2 1/2 pounds)
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
½ tablespoon apple cider vinegar (plus additional to taste)
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme (optional)

Steps:

  • Cut the cabbage in half from its top down through its core. Place the cut-side down on your cutting board, then slice it as thinly as possible around the core so that you have fine ribbons. Discard the core.
  • Heat a large saute pan or similar heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Add olive oil and butter. Once the butter is melted, add the cabbage, salt, and pepper. Saute for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is tender and begins to brown. Don't feel like you need to constantly stir it. Leaving cabbage undisturbed for a minute or two as you go is what will allow it to develop brown caramelized bits (aka FLAVOR).
  • Remove from the heat and stir in the apple cider vinegar. Taste and add a bit of additional salt and pepper if you like, or a splash more vinegar if you'd like to add more zippy and acidic flavors. Sprinkle with thyme. Serve warm.

CAJUN CABBAGE SKILLET



Cajun Cabbage Skillet image

This easy skillet dinner comes together quickly, making it a perfect option for a weeknight. We used spicy andouille sausages to give the dish a little kick, but any type of sausage would work. Cooking at medium-high heat allows the sausage and vegetables to get nice and caramelized in a short amount of time, but if they ever start to overcook, stir in a splash of cold water to cool the pan down.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 2 to 3 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons canola oil
8 ounces chicken andouille sausages, sliced diagonally 1/4-inch thick (about 1 heaping cup)
1 small yellow onion, thinly sliced (about 2 scant cups)
Kosher salt
1/2 small head green cabbage, cored, halved crosswise and sliced 1/4-inch thick (about 6 cups)
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/2 small sweet-tart apple such as Gala or McIntosh, cored and sliced 1/8-inch thick (about 3/4 cup)
1 large scallion, thinly sliced (about 1/4 cup)
Hot sauce, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat a large cast-iron skillet or high-sided saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the oil and swirl the pan to coat evenly. Add the sausage slices in a single layer and cook until browned on the first side, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook until browned on the second side, about 2 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove the sausage slices to a bowl and set aside.
  • Add the onion, a splash of water and large pinch salt to the pan and cook over medium-high heat, using a wooden spoon or heatproof rubber spatula to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is lightly browned in spots and starting to get tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the cabbage, crushed red pepper and another pinch salt and cook until cabbage is crisp-tender, 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally. If the pan seems dry at any point, stir in another splash of water.
  • Add the garlic and cider vinegar and cook until the vinegar is mostly evaporated, about 1 minute, stirring constantly. Stir in the butter until melted, then return the sausage to the pan along with the apple and cook until the apple slices are just tender, 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Sprinkle with the scallion and serve immediately with hot sauce alongside.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cabbage: For this recipe, it's best to use a firm head of green or Savoy cabbage. Avoid using red cabbage, as it tends to be more bitter.
  • Slice the cabbage thinly: This will help it cook evenly and quickly. You can use a sharp knife or a mandoline to slice the cabbage.
  • Use a large skillet: This will give the cabbage plenty of room to cook without overcrowding. A 12-inch skillet is a good size.
  • Cook the cabbage over medium-high heat: This will help it get nicely browned and slightly crispy.
  • Stir the cabbage frequently: This will prevent it from burning.
  • Add the aromatics: Once the cabbage has started to brown, add the onions, garlic, and ginger. Cook until the onions are softened and translucent.
  • Add the sauce: Stir in the soy sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for a few minutes, or until the cabbage is tender.
  • Serve immediately: Veggie skillet cabbage is best served hot. You can garnish it with chopped green onions or cilantro.

Conclusion:

Veggie skillet cabbage is a quick, easy, and delicious side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It's a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables, and it's also a good source of fiber, vitamins, and minerals. So next time you're looking for a healthy and flavorful side dish, give veggie skillet cabbage a try. You won't be disappointed!
