Butter Braised Cabbage
Patricia @ ButterYum
Tired of the same old boring boiled cabbage on St. Patrick's Day? Try this quick and easy way to braise it in butter! Yes, butter. Hey, St. Patrick's Day only happens once a year - live a little!
Start by coring half a head of green cabbage (my cored half weights about 2 pounds).
Slice the half into half again and slice thinly. Be sure to use a good quality sharp knife (this is one of my favorites).
Add butter and oil to a large pan over medium heat.
Add the sliced cabbage.
And the salt and pepper.
Toss well and cover for about 5 minutes to help the cabbage wilt down a bit.
Uncover the pan and continue cooking the cabbage, stirring frequently, until the cabbage wilts down and begins to caramelize.
Almost there....
Done - that only took about 10 minutes all together.
Enjoy!
