For a vegetarian option, ensure your beer is vegan-friendly. Many beers are clarified using animal products. If you prefer a sweeter flavor, add a teaspoon of brown sugar or maple syrup along with the vinegar. This dish can be prepared ahead of time. The flavors meld beautifully as it sits. Simply reheat gently before serving. Try adding a pinch of red pepper flakes for a subtle kick of heat. Serve as a side dish with roasted pork, sausages, or grilled chicken. It's also delicious as a filling for vegetarian tacos or as a topping for crostini.

Add the thinly sliced cabbage and cider vinegar to the skillet. Stir to combine, ensuring the cabbage is coated with the sauce.

StepCover the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, until the cabbage is wilted and tender. The cooking time will depend on the thickness of the cabbage and your desired level of tenderness. (8-10 minutes)
