Sautéed Red Cabbage with Raisins

Recipe information

  • Yield

    serves 4

Ingredients

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 small red cabbage (about 1 3/4 pounds), halved, cored, and thinly sliced crosswise
2 small shallots, quartered and separated into layers (about 4 ounces)
2 teaspoons coarse salt
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 1/2 teaspoons cider vinegar
Freshly ground pepper
1/3 cup raisins

Preparation

  1. Heat the oil in a large nonstick sauté pan over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add the cabbage and shallots, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage has softened slightly, about 15 minutes. Stir in the salt, lemon juice, and vinegar. Season with pepper. Cook until the cabbage has wilted and the shallots have softened, 10 to 12 minutes more. Stir in the raisins; serve.
