Szechuan Cabbage
Serves Two
Ingredients:
Half a head of cabbage – chopped into big pieces
2 tbsp butter
2 gloves garlic – thinly sliced
Half jalapeno (or other Thai pepper) –thinly sliced (add more if you like it spicier)
2 tbsp sesame oil
¼ cup chicken stock
2 tbsp soy sauce
Recipe:
Heat pan to medium and melt butter
Add sliced garlic to pan
Turn down heat to medium low – cook garlic for 2 minutes
Add sliced jalapeno to pan – cook jalapeño & garlic for 1 minute
Add sesame oil and chopped cabbage to pan– make sure heat is medium low (sesame oil does not like heat)
Cook cabbage down a bit, focusing on not browning the garlic
In 2-3 minutes add chicken stock to the pan—this will speed up the cooking
Turn up heat to medium
Add soy sauce
Stir and cook down for a couple minutes
Enjoy!
