While I haven’t spent much time in the Caribbean, I can confidently say that I am a big fan of their food. Every dish I’ve tried has been absolutely packed with flavors and fresh ingredients, making it a favorite in our takeout rotation. A side that captured my attention right away was Jamaican Cabbage. This dish is loaded with veggies and steamed in delightful spices. The final flavors are sweet, caramelized, and a little tangy. All round, it’s a knockout side dish alongside jerk chicken or your favorite grilled meats.
Traditional recipes use a scotch bonnet pepper for this dish, but we subbed in a jalapeno pepper for a more mild heat. If you can handle spicy foods feel free to make it the traditional way. We recommend adding the pepper whole in that case and then removing it before serving.
Don’t forget the splash of white vinegar and sprinkle of sugar at the end of the cooking process. These flavors round out the dish beautifully and give it that sweet and tangy flavor. Serve this side with grilled fish, chicken, or pork for a dinner that is sure to wow. Expand your culinary horizons and give this Jamaican Cabbage recipe a try!
