Calories: 345kcal
Ingredients
- 2 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 medium red onion thinly sliced
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- ⅛ teaspoon red chili flakes
- 1 pound shredded red cabbage (about 4 cups - see note)
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
- ½ pound spaghetti, cooked according to directions (use Gluten Free spaghetti if you need to make this recipe Gluten Free)
- ¼ cup crumbled Feta cheese
Instructions
- Heat 2 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Cook the sliced onion until soft, about 3-5 minutes, reducing heat to medium-low if onions begin to brown. Add the minced garlic and ⅛ teaspoon red chili flakes and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in 1 pound shredded red cabbage, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Cover and cook until cabbage is softened, about 15-20 minutes.
- Portion the spaghetti onto 4 bowls or plates. Distribute the cabbage mixture over the pasta, and top each with 1 Tablespoon of crumbled Feta. Serve immediately.
Notes
It's easy to shred red cabbage by slicing it very thin with a sharp knife. However, if your knives are on the dull side, use a mandoline (and then go sharpen your knives).
