Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cups chopped green cabbage
- 2 cups torn kale leaves
- 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons coconut aminos
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or avocado oil
- 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Chop the cabbage, kale, onion, and garlic so everything is ready before you begin cooking.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and sauté for 3–4 minutes until softened and starting to brown. Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add the cabbage to the skillet. Let it cook undisturbed for a few minutes so it can brown, then stir occasionally for 8–10 minutes until tender and golden.
- Stir in the kale and cook for 2–3 minutes until wilted.
- Pour in the coconut aminos, and season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Mix well and cook for another 2 minutes so everything is well combined.
- Serve hot, straight from the skillet, as a side or main dish.
Notes
- Perfect for busy weeknights or simple lunch prep.
- Can be topped with a fried egg for a hearty breakfast.
