Categories     Leafy Green

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 head cabbage
3 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 clove garlic
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon lemon zest
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 tablespoon orange juice
2 tablespoons chopped chives

Steps:

  • 1. Cut the cabbage lengthwise into six wedges; remove most of the core from each wedge but leaving enough to keep the leaves intact. Place a steamer basket in a large saucepan or Dutch oven. Add enough water to reach just below the basket. Bring the water to a boil; add the cabbage wedges to the basket. Cover and steam until the cabbage is tender, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • 2. Meanwhile, melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the chile, garlic, and salt. Cook, stirring for 1 minute. Remove from the heat. Transfer to a small bowl and let cool slightly. Stir in the lemon zest, lemon juice, and orange juice.
  • 3. Transfer the cabbage wedges to a serving platter. Drizzle the citrus butter over the cabbage and sprinkle with the chives.
