Sausage and Cabbage

Sausage and Cabbage brings together smoked sausage and fresh cabbage for a meal packed with flavor. This easy dish is perfect for a quick dinner or a comforting meal, featuring simple prep and hearty ingredients enjoyed by all.

  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 24 ounces smoked sausage, sliced into rounds (kielbasa or turkey kielbasa work great)
  • 1 small onion, thinly sliced
  • 3 tablespoons salted butter
  • 1 medium head green cabbage, cored and sliced
  • ½ cup chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • optional garnish: chopped fresh parsley

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large, deep skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the sausage rounds and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned on both sides, approximately 5-7 minutes, then remove the sausage with a slotted spoon to leave the drippings in the pan.
  3. Add the thinly sliced onion to the pan and cook until softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Incorporate butter into the pan with the onions. When melted, add the sliced cabbage and toss to coat with the butter and onions.
  5. Stir in chicken broth, kosher salt, garlic powder, and black pepper. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for approximately 15 minutes, stirring halfway through.
  6. Once the cabbage is tender, add the browned sausage back into the pan and stir until warmed through, about 1 more minute. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

Feel free to use turkey kielbasa for a leaner option.
Pair this dish with crusty bread for a heartier meal.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
