Description

Thick Polish-style kluski noodles are mixed with cabbage, seasonings, and plenty of butter in this butter garlic cabbage and kluski noodles recipe.

Ingredients

1 (12 ounce) package kluski noodles
3 tablespoons butter
1 sweet onion, finely chopped
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon dried Italian herb seasoning
1 pinch crushed red pepper flakes
1 large head cabbage, cored and finely chopped
1/4 cup water
1 pinch garlic powder, or to taste
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Directions

1 Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rapid boil. Cook kluski noodles at a boil, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until tender but still slightly firm, 7 to 10 minutes. Drain well. Return noodles to pot; stir in 3 tablespoons butter until melted and noodles coated. Set aside.
2 Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion; cook and stir until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic; cook and stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in Italian seasoning and pepper flakes until evenly distributed.
3 Stir cabbage and water into onion mixture until well combined. Cover; cook, stirring often, until cabbage is tender and reduced in volume by about half, 15 to 20 minutes. There should be a small amount of liquid left in pot.
4 Gently stir buttered noodles into cabbage mixture until well combined. Stir in remaining 3 tablespoons butter if desired; season with garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
