Equipment

Large skillet
Cutting board
Chef’s knife
Measuring spoons
Measuring Cup

Ingredients

1 lb smoked sausage sliced into rounds
1 medium head of cabbage cored and sliced into thin strips
1 medium yellow onion diced
3 cloves garlic minced
2 tbsp olive oil
½ tsp paprika
½ tsp sea salt or to taste
¼ tsp black pepper
¼ tsp red pepper flakes optional for a spicy kick
2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
¼ cup chicken broth

Instructions

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced sausages and cook until browned on both sides, about 5 minutes. Remove the sausages from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the diced onion and cook until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Stir in the sliced cabbage, paprika, sea salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using). Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is slightly wilted.
Pour in the apple cider vinegar and chicken broth, and bring the mixture to a simmer. Allow the liquid to reduce slightly, about 2 minutes.
Return the sausages to the skillet with the cabbage mixture and stir to combine. Cook for another 5-7 minutes until the cabbage is tender and the flavors are well combined.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary before serving.

Notes

For a dairy-free option, ensure your sausage does not contain any dairy products.

Adjust the heat level by increasing or decreasing the amount of red pepper flakes to suit your taste preferences.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet or microwave.
