Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the egg noodles according to the package instructions until al dente. Drain, rinse with cold water to stop cooking, and set aside.
While the noodles cook, slice the bacon into bite-sized pieces and place them in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat. Cook until the bacon is crisp and the fat has rendered, about 7-8 minutes. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside, leaving the rendered fat in the pan.
Finely slice the onion and cabbage. Mince the garlic.
Add the butter to the skillet with the bacon fat and melt over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Stir in the garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the sliced cabbage to the skillet. Sprinkle in the salt, black pepper, and caraway seeds (if using). Stir to coat the cabbage in the butter and seasonings. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 8-10 minutes until the cabbage is tender and slightly caramelized.
Return the cooked bacon to the pan and stir to combine.
Add the cooked noodles to the skillet, tossing gently to combine with the cabbage and bacon mixture. Cook for 2-3 minutes to heat everything through.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Serve warm, garnished with chopped parsley if desired.
