Categories St. Patrick's Day weeknight meals winter comfort food dinner main dish

Time 45m

Yield 3-4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

2 tbsp. olive oil
1 tbsp. butter
1 lb. smoked sausage, such as kielbasa, sliced into coins, 1/2" thick
1/2 yellow onion, sliced
8 c. chopped green cabbage (about half of 1 medium cabbage)
3 cloves garlic, chopped
1 tsp. salt, plus more to taste
1/2 tsp. ground black pepper, plus more to taste
1/2 c. chicken stock
2 tbsp. chopped fresh parsley, optional
Grainy mustard and/or sour cream, for serving (optional)

Steps:

Heat a large skillet (with a tight fitting lid) over medium-high heat. Heat the olive oil and butter until melted. Add the sausage and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown on both sides, about 5 minutes. Remove the sausage with a slotted spoon, leaving the oil in the pan and set aside on a plate.
Add the onion to the skillet and cook until slightly softened, about 5 minutes. Add the cabbage, garlic, salt and pepper and cook 8 more minutes until the cabbage is wilted. Return the sausage to the skillet and stir all together. Add the chicken stock. Cover and reduce the heat to medium low. Let cook for 20 minutes. (Do not uncover or stir).
Stir in the fresh parsley, if using, and season with more salt and pepper to taste. Serve with grainy mustard or a dollop of sour cream.

Tips:

Choose the right sausage: For the best flavor, use a fully cooked sausage with a high meat content. You can use any type of sausage you like, but kielbasa, bratwurst, or Italian sausage are all good choices.
Slice the cabbage thinly: This will help it cook evenly and quickly. You can use a mandoline or a sharp knife to slice the cabbage.
Cook the cabbage until it is tender: This will take about 15 minutes, depending on the thickness of the slices. Stir the cabbage occasionally to prevent it from sticking to the pan.
Add the sausage and cook until it is heated through: This will take about 5 minutes. Stir the sausage and cabbage together to combine.
Season the dish to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other spices, such as garlic powder or paprika, to taste.
Serve the dish immediately: Sausage smothered in red cabbage is best served hot. You can garnish it with fresh parsley or chives.

Conclusion:

Sausage smothered in red cabbage is a simple and hearty dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is made with just a few ingredients and can be easily customized to your liking. The cabbage is tender and flavorful, and the sausage is juicy and savory. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
