Creamy Garlic Parmesan Cabbage is a quick and satisfying dish featuring tender cabbage wedges coated in a rich garlic and parmesan sauce. Perfect for a healthy meal!
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, and sear undisturbed for 3 to 4 minutes per side until golden brown. Use tongs to flip and remove to a plate to set aside.
- In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium and add chopped onion, cooking until soft and golden, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in minced garlic and Cajun seasoning, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.
- Pour in the heavy cream, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan, and 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.
Notes
For an extra kick, add more Cajun seasoning according to your taste.
Feel free to substitute the heavy cream with a lighter version if preferred.
This dish makes a great side for grilled meats or a delicious vegetarian main course.
