- Total30 minutes
- Servings6
Ingredients
- 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, and sear undisturbed for 3 to 4 minutes per side until golden brown. Use tongs to flip. Remove to a plate and set aside.
- In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium. Add chopped onion and cook until soft and golden, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in minced garlic and Cajun seasoning; cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
- Pour in the heavy cream, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Simmer for 2 to 3 minutes to slightly thicken.
- Stir in Parmesan and chopped parsley. Let the sauce simmer for another minute until smooth.
- Return cabbage wedges to the skillet, spooning sauce over the top. Cover partially and cook for another 5 minutes, until cabbage is fork-tender.
- Garnish with extra parsley and serve warm. Enjoy!
