Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion
- 2 large garlic cloves
- 3 links vegan sausage links
- 1 medium head green cabbage
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes
Instructions
Finely chop the yellow onion. Peel and mince the garlic cloves.
Slice the vegan sausage links into 1/2-inch rounds.
Remove the outer leaves from the cabbage if needed and cut it into quarters. Remove the core and thinly slice each quarter into shreds.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook for about 3 minutes until it becomes translucent.
Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Add the sliced vegan sausage to the skillet and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes until browned on all sides.
Add the sliced cabbage to the skillet. Stir well to combine with the onions, garlic, and sausage.
Season with smoked paprika, dried thyme, black pepper, and salt. Stir to coat the cabbage evenly with the spices.
Drizzle the soy sauce over the ingredients in the skillet, then cover the skillet with a lid.
Cook covered for about 10-12 minutes on medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is tender but still retains a slight crunch.
Stir in the apple cider vinegar and red pepper flakes, adjusting the seasoning if needed.
Remove from heat and let the flavors meld for a couple of minutes before serving.
Serve the Vegan Savory Cabbage and Sausage Skillet warm, optionally with some crusty bread on the side.
