Stovetop Braised Cabbage

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

I love having leftover cooked protein in my fridge. My sister’s brisket is super delicious. I’m even more stoked that I also have a 3-pound portion of it frozen in my freezer.

I decided to serve the leftover brisket with some stove-top braised cabbage.

Time to make Stovetop Braised Cabbage!

Serves 4

Ingredients:

  • ½ onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 napa cabbage, thinly sliced
  • ¼ cup chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons coconut vinegar
  • Diamond Crystal kosher salt
  • Freshly ground black pepper

Equipment:

  • All of my recommended kitchen tools are listed here.

Method:

I sautéed half a sliced onion in some ghee.

Then I added a whole, sliced cabbage and ¼ cup of chicken broth. I covered the pan and let it simmer on low for 8 minutes.

…and I added ~ 2 tablespoons and some salt and pepper.

I nuked the leftover brisket and then I plated some on top of the cabbage and some shredded carrots.

Good eats.
