Garlic Butter Cabbage


  • Author: Luna
  • Total Time: About 35 minutes

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large head green cabbage, cored and chopped into bite-size pieces
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 5 garlic cloves, minced
  • ½ cup low-sodium chicken broth
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
  • ½ teaspoon salt, or to taste
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice, optional

Instructions

  • Remove damaged outer leaves, quarter the cabbage, remove the core, and chop into even pieces. Drain well if rinsed.
  • Melt the butter in a large deep skillet or wide Dutch oven over medium heat.
  • Add garlic and cook for 30–45 seconds, stirring, just until fragrant.
  • Add cabbage, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat, adding cabbage in batches if needed.
  • Pour in broth, cover, and cook over medium-low heat for 12–15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender. Allow more time if needed.
  • Uncover and cook over medium heat for 5–8 minutes, or until excess liquid evaporates. Allow brief undisturbed contact with the pan for some golden edges, watching the garlic carefully.
  • Stir in parsley and optional lemon juice. Taste, adjust seasoning, and serve hot.
