Ingredients
- 1 medium head of cabbage, chopped (about 6 cups)
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Prepare the Cabbage: Remove the outer leaves from the cabbage, rinse it under cold water, and chop into bite-sized pieces.
- Heat Butter: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter until it starts to bubble but not brown.
- Sauté Cabbage: Add the chopped cabbage to the skillet. Stir well to coat with butter. Cook for about 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is tender and slightly caramelized.
- Season: Sprinkle salt and black pepper evenly over the cabbage. Stir well to combine and cook for another 1-2 minutes to meld the flavors.
- Serve Warm: Remove from heat and serve immediately as a savory side dish.
Notes
- For added flavor, you can include diced onions or garlic when sautéing.
- If you prefer a bit of crunch, cook the cabbage for less time, about 6-8 minutes.
- Use clarified butter or olive oil for a different flavor profile.
- This dish pairs well with meats like pork chops or sausages.
