Sautéed Cabbage and Kielbasa

All you need is a few simple ingredients to make this ridiculously tasty 30-minute cabbage and kielbasa skillet! It's easy, inexpensive comfort food at its very best.

Ingredients

  • 16 ounces kielbasa (smoked Polish sausage) (sliced into 1/4" rounds)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 medium onion (chopped)
  • 1 medium green cabbage (sliced thin, core removed)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt & pepper (to taste)

Directions

  1. 1

    Heat oil in a large skillet on medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook, stirring occasionally, until it's nicely browned (7-10 minutes). Turn the heat down to medium once it gets going. Remove the kielbasa from the pan and set aside once it's nice and crisp.

  2. 2

    Add the butter and onion to the pan. Cook for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  3. 3

    Add the cabbage to the pan and cook uncovered for 10-15 minutes, stirring fairly often. The cabbage at the bottom of the pan will start to wilt after a few minutes and it will become easier to stir. The onions will also start to lightly brown and become more flavorful.

  4. 4

    Once the cabbage is tender-crisp and cooked to your liking, add the garlic and paprika. Stir until it's combined. Add in the sausage and cook for a couple more minutes until it's heated through. Season with salt & pepper to taste. Serve immediately.
