Green Cabbage and Apples

I really like cabbage and this one is right on time for St. Patrick's Day.  Here goes...



1 head green cabbage
2-3 green apples
1 sweet onion (I used medium sweet yellow)
a dash of lemon juice
3 Tbsp olive oil
3 Tbsp sugar (maybe a tiny bit more)
3 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
1 Cup dry pinot grigio (or veggie broth)
salt and pepper to taste

Core and slice the cabbage coarsely.  Put the chopped cabbage in a bowl or ziplock bag with the sugar, vinegar and wine.  Put that in the refrigerator for at least an hour to marinate.  Peel and slice the apples in slices to your desired thickness and toss the slices in a bag in the fridge with the dash of lemon juice.  I like them about 1/2 inch think slices.  Chop the onion however you like as well.  After the hour is up turn the burner on about medium heat and put the oil in the pan.  Once the pan has heated up the oil toss in the cabbage and all the juice with the onion and apples.  Cook that down for about 10-15 minutes.  You can cover it if you like, but not necessary.  I turn the heat down once the cabbage starts to wilt down a little and that way you don't brown the onions.  I usually like my cabbage and apples to have a good bite still, but if you desire softer texture then just keep it cooking longer.  YUMMY.
