Fried Cabbage with Bacon and Onion Recipe
Ingredients
- 4 strips of thick-cut bacon, diced
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 1 onion, diced
- 6 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 head of cabbage, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Celtic sea salt
Instructions
- Dice the bacon into thick pieces and fry until crisp. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat until it becomes foamy.
- Add the diced onions to the skillet and cook until they become soft and translucent, about 4 minutes. Stir frequently to prevent sticking or burning.
- Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook until fragrant and soft, approximately 3 minutes.
- Add the chopped cabbage to the skillet, tossing well to coat with the butter.
- Season generously with Celtic sea salt.
- Allow the cabbage to reduce by half, stirring occasionally to ensure even cooking and to prevent burning, about 10 minutes. Add the cooked bacon back to the pan.
- Continue cooking until the cabbage has reduced in bulk, turns slightly translucent with a shiny appearance, and has golden brown bits. This indicates it is ready to serve.
