Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 head (medium size, about 2-3 lbs) cabbage
- 1 pound smoked sausage or kielbasa
- 1 large yellow onion
- 2 medium carrots
- 3 cloves garlic
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 teaspoon (adjust to taste) salt
- 1 teaspoon (adjust to taste) black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 2 tablespoons (chopped, optional for garnish) parsley
Instructions
1. Prepare the vegetables: Core and chop the cabbage into bite-sized pieces. Peel and thinly slice the onion. Peel the carrots and slice them into rounds. Mince the garlic.
2. Slice the sausage into 1/2-inch rounds.
3. Heat a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and the sausage. Cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sausage is browned. Remove the sausage and set it aside.
4. In the same skillet, add 2 tablespoons of butter. Once melted, add the onions and carrots. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions are softened.
5. Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for 1 minute, stirring to prevent burning.
6. Add the chopped cabbage to the skillet. Pour in the chicken broth, and season with salt, black pepper, and paprika. Stir to combine.
7. Cover the skillet and let the cabbage cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it is tender.
8. Return the sausage to the skillet and stir to combine. Cook uncovered for an additional 5-7 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
9. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Garnish with chopped parsley, if desired.
10. Serve hot as a main course. Enjoy!
