Description
A quick, hearty stir fry combining smoky sausage, tender cabbage, and aromatic onions that comes together in about 30 minutes.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or vegetable oil
- 12 ounces smoked sausage, sliced into rounds
- 1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 small green cabbage, chopped
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes, optional
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce, optional
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, optional
- Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
Instructions
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced sausage and cook for about 4 to 5 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned and slightly crisp around the edges.
- Transfer the sausage to a plate and set it aside.
- Add the sliced onion into the same skillet. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes until softened.
- Add the minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds, just until fragrant.
- Place the chopped cabbage into the skillet along with paprika, black pepper, salt, red pepper flakes, and Italian seasoning if using. Stir together until the cabbage is evenly coated.
- Cook the cabbage for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until it becomes tender and slightly caramelized.
- Return the cooked sausage to the skillet, stir well and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes until everything is heated through.
- Garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately.
Notes
Use a large skillet to prevent steaming the cabbage. Adjust seasoning according to sausage salt levels. Meal prep friendly and can be stored for up to 3 days.
