  • 1 medium Red Onion Adds sweetness and color; yellow or white onion can be substituted.
For the Cabbage
  • 4 cups Shredded Green Cabbage The star vegetable; savoy or purple cabbage can be alternatives.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large skillet, pour in 2 tablespoons of olive oil and heat over medium-high heat until it begins to shimmer, about 2 minutes.
  2. Add 2 minced garlic cloves and 1 sliced red onion to the hot oil, stirring frequently for about 2 minutes or until the onion turns translucent.
  3. Gently stir in 4 cups of shredded green cabbage. Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally until the cabbage wilts down and softens.
  4. Add 1 cup of freshly grated Parmesan cheese. Stir well to combine until the cheese melts and is evenly distributed.
  5. Remove the skillet from the heat and transfer the Parmesan Garlic Cabbage to a serving dish. Serve warm.
