1 Melt 4 tablespoons of the butter in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the cabbage and water and stir until the cabbage is evenly coated with garlic butter. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is just tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Reduce the heat as it cooks, if necessary, to prevent browning.
2 Uncover, stir in the salt, pepper, and 2 tablespoons of the butter until melted, about 1 minute. Remove from heat; garnish with additional pepper and the remaining 2 tablespoon butter. Serve immediately. Refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Love the recipe? Leave us stars and a comment below!
