Ingredients
- Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons
- Sausage (preferably smoked or kielbasa)
- 1 pound, sliced
- Onion
- 1 medium, diced
- Garlic
- 3 cloves, minced
- Cabbage
- 1 medium head, shredded

- 1 cup
- Salt
- 1 teaspoon
- Black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon
- Paprika

Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat until shimmering.
- Add the sliced sausage to the skillet and cook until browned, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure even cooking.
- Incorporate the diced onion and minced garlic into the skillet. Sauté until the onion is translucent and the garlic is fragrant, about 3 minutes.
- Stir in the shredded cabbage, seasoning it with salt, black pepper, paprika, and red pepper flakes. Cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the cabbage is tender and slightly caramelized, stirring occasionally.
- Pour in the chicken broth, stirring to combine all the ingredients. Allow the mixture to simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes until heated through.
- Remove from heat and sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving. Enjoy your dish warm.
Tips
- For a vegetarian version, substitute sausage with plant-based sausage or omit it entirely, and add more vegetables such as bell peppers or carrots.
- Feel free to experiment with different types of sausage like Italian or chorizo for a unique flavor.
- Serve with a dollop of sour cream or a splash of apple cider vinegar for added richness and tang.
