Step-by-Step Instructions for Creamy Garlic Parmesan Cabbage
  1. In a large skillet, melt the unsalted butter with olive oil over medium-high heat until aromatic.
  2. Carefully place the cabbage wedges, cut side down, into the hot skillet and sear undisturbed for about 3-4 minutes until golden brown. Turn and cook for another 3-4 minutes.
  3. Remove the cabbage and sauté the finely chopped onion in the same skillet for about 5 minutes until soft and translucent.
  4. Stir in the minced garlic and Cajun seasoning, cooking for about 1 minute to infuse flavors.
  5. Pour in the heavy cream, scraping up browned bits and bring to a gentle simmer for 2-3 minutes.
  6. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and chopped parsley until melted and smooth.
  7. Return the cabbage to the skillet and spoon sauce over. Partially cover and cook for an additional 5 minutes.
  8. Transfer to a serving platter, garnish with additional parsley, and serve warm.
