Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.

Add the diced onion, green bell pepper, and celery to the pot. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the shredded cabbage to the pot and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it begins to wilt.
Return the sausage and chicken to the pot, then pour in the crushed tomatoes and chicken broth.
Stir in the Cajun seasoning, thyme, bay leaf, salt, and black pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is tender.
Remove the bay leaf and adjust seasoning if needed. Add hot sauce if desired for extra heat.
Serve hot, garnished with chopped scallions. Enjoy!
