How to Make Cajun Peppered Cabbage

  1. In a large bowl, combine 1 medium head of cabbage (thinly sliced), 1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper, 1/4 cup chopped red bell pepper, 1/4 cup chopped onion, 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
  2. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large saucepan over medium-low heat.
  3. Add the cabbage mixture to the saucepan. Stir to coat with the melted butter.
  4. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 8-10 minutes, or until the cabbage is tender-crisp and slightly browned. If needed, add a splash of water to prevent sticking.
  5. Serve hot as a delicious side dish or a light vegetarian main course.
