Ingredients

  • 1 medium head green cabbage cut in 8 wedges
  • 1 medium to large sweet onion thickly sliced
  • 4 large carrots peeled and sliced in ¼ to ½ iinch slices
  • ½ cup low-sodium chicken broth or vegetable broth
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter sliced in thin pats
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar or apple cider vinegar

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Grease a 9x13-inch casserole pan.
  • Lay the cabbage wedges in the dish as flat as you can so they absorb the braising liquid. Sprinkle the cabbage with carrots and onions. 
  • Drizzle the dish with chicken broth and season with a healthy amount of kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper. Scatter the pats of butter over the vegetables and cover the dish with aluminum foil. 
  • Place the dish in the oven and cook for about 1 hour. Remove the dish from the oven and carefully flip the cabbages using tongs. Cover and bake for another hour or until fork tender.
  • Increase oven temperature to 425 degrees, carefully remove the foil from the dish, and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the cabbage lightly browns. Drizzle with balsamic vinegar or apple cider vinegar.
