Ingredients
Scale
- 1 medium head green cabbage about 2 lbs, cored and cut into 5–6 wedges
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 small yellow onion finely chopped
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- ½ cup heavy cream
- ½ cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon cajun seasoning
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley plus more for garnish
Instructions
- Heat the butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add cabbage wedges, flat side down, sear undisturbed for 3 to 4 minutes per side until golden brown, flipping using tongs, and then remove to a plate.
- In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium. Add chopped onion and cook for about 5 minutes until soft and golden.
- Stir in minced garlic and Cajun seasoning, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.
- Pour in heavy cream, scraping up browned bits from the pan. Simmer for 2 to 3 minutes until slightly thickened.
- Stir in Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley, letting the sauce simmer for another minute until smooth.
- Return cabbage wedges to the skillet, spooning sauce over the top. Cover partially and cook for an additional 5 minutes, until the cabbage is fork-tender.
- Garnish with extra parsley and serve warm.
Notes
For added flavor, consider using smoked paprika in place of Cajun seasoning.
This dish pairs well with grilled or roasted meats.
