Ingredients
Scale
Noodles
- 12 ounces egg noodles
Vegetables and Seasonings
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 1 small head green cabbage, thinly sliced (about 6 cups)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika (optional)
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley for garnish
Fat
- 4 tablespoons butter
Instructions
- Cook Noodles: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add egg noodles and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain the noodles well and set aside.
- Sauté Onions: In a large skillet or sauté pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and cook for about 5 minutes until it becomes soft and translucent, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.
- Cook Cabbage: Add the thinly sliced cabbage to the pan along with salt, black pepper, and paprika if using. Sauté the mixture for 10 to 12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is tender and slightly caramelized.
- Combine with Noodles: Add the cooked egg noodles to the skillet and gently toss to combine all ingredients. Continue to cook for 2 to 3 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
- Garnish and Serve: Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley over the top. Serve warm as a main dish or side.
Notes
- For extra richness, add a few slices of cooked bacon or drizzle with olive oil before serving.
- Leftovers reheat well in a skillet over low heat or in the microwave.
- Adjust seasoning to taste; paprika is optional but adds a nice color and subtle flavor.
