Ingredients

2 cans (14 1/2 ounces each) low-sodium chicken broth

1 teaspoon coarse salt

10 whole black peppercorns

1 bay leaf

1 small green cabbage (about 2 pounds), cut into 8 wedges

1 small leek, white and pale-green parts only, halved lengthwise and cut crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick pieces

Preparation

Bring broth, salt, peppercorns, and bay leaf to a boil in a medium pot over medium-high heat. Add cabbage and leek. Cover; reduce heat to medium. Simmer until cabbage is tender, 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer cabbage and some of the broth to a serving platter.
