Cabbage & Kielbasa Skillet
Ingredients:
1 lb kielbasa sausage, sliced into rounds
1 small head cabbage, thinly sliced
1 onion, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
1/4 cup chicken broth
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Salt to taste
Instructions:
Cook Kielbasa: Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add kielbasa and cook until browned on all sides. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Sauté Vegetables: Add the sliced onion and minced garlic to the skillet and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
Add Cabbage: Stir in the sliced cabbage and cook, stirring occasionally, until it starts to soften, about 5-7 minutes.
Combine Ingredients: Return the kielbasa to the skillet. Add the diced tomatoes (with juices), chicken broth, thyme, and black pepper. Bring to a simmer, then reduce the heat and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the cabbage is tender-crisp.
Season and Serve: Add salt to taste. Serve hot.
Tips & Variations:
Add Potatoes: For extra heartiness, add 2 cups of cubed potatoes along with the cabbage.
Spice it Up: Add red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce to give the dish a kick.
Make it Hearty: For a more filling meal, add a can of beans (such as great northern beans or cannellini beans) to the skillet.
Use Different Sausage: Feel free to swap the kielbasa with other types of sausage, such as andouille or smoked sausage.
Enjoy your hearty and flavorful Cabbage and Kielbasa Skillet!
