  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, or to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Ingredients: Shred the cabbage into thin strips and mince the garlic cloves finely to ensure even cooking and flavor distribution.
  2. Melt Butter and Sauté Garlic: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant but not browned to infuse the butter with garlic flavor.

Notes

  • For a bit of spice, add a pinch of red pepper flakes during the garlic sauté step.
  • This dish pairs well with grilled or roasted meats, fish, or as a vegetarian main with added protein.
  • Using fresh garlic is essential for the best flavor, but garlic powder can be substituted in a pinch.
  • Ensure not to overcook the cabbage to maintain some texture and nutritional value.
  • Butter can be substituted with olive oil for a different flavor profile and lighter fat content.
