Pioneer Woman Cabbage and Sausage Recipe

Pioneer Woman Cabbage and Sausage Recipe

This Pioneer Woman Cabbage and Sausage Recipe is a savory and easy one-pan meal, which is made with smoked sausage and green cabbage. It’s the perfect weeknight dinner, ready in about 50 minutes.

Pioneer Woman Cabbage and Sausage Ingredients

  • 2 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 Tbsp. butter
  • 1 lb. smoked sausage, such as kielbasa, sliced into coins, 1/2″ thick
  • 1/2 yellow onion, sliced
  • 8 cups chopped green cabbage (about half of 1 medium cabbage)
  • 3 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 1 tsp. salt, plus more to taste
  • 1/2 tsp. ground black pepper, plus more to taste
  • 1/2 cup chicken stock
  • 2 Tbsp. chopped fresh parsley, optional
  • Grainy mustard and/or sour cream, for serving (optional)

How To Make Pioneer Woman Cabbage and Sausage

  1. Brown the sausage: Heat a large skillet with a tight-fitting lid over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and butter. Once the butter is melted, add the sliced sausage and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown on both sides, about 5 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove the sausage, leaving the drippings in the pan.
  2. Sauté the vegetables: Add the sliced onion to the skillet and cook until slightly softened, about 5 minutes. Add the chopped cabbage, garlic, salt, and pepper. Continue to cook, stirring, until the cabbage has wilted, which should take about 8 more minutes.
  3. Combine and simmer: Return the browned sausage to the skillet and stir everything together. Pour in the chicken stock. Cover the skillet, reduce the heat to medium-low, and let it cook for 20 minutes without uncovering or stirring.
  4. Finish and serve: After 20 minutes, stir in the fresh parsley, if you’re using it. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot with a side of grainy mustard or a dollop of sour cream.

Recipe Tips

  • What kind of sausage is best? Smoked sausage like kielbasa is ideal for its flavor, but andouille would also work well if you prefer a little spice.
  • How do I keep the cabbage from getting mushy? The key is not to overcook it. The 20-minute covered simmer time is designed to make it tender, not mushy. Also, avoid stirring during this final cooking stage.
  • Can I add other vegetables? Yes, this is a versatile dish. Sliced bell peppers or carrots can be added with the onion for extra flavor and color.
  • How can I add more flavor? A splash of apple cider vinegar at the end can brighten up the flavors. You could also add a teaspoon of caraway seeds with the garlic for a more traditional taste.

What To Serve With Cabbage and Sausage

This is a hearty, all-in-one meal, but it also pairs well with a few classic sides:

  • Creamy mashed potatoes
  • Buttered egg noodles
  • Crusty rye or pumpernickel bread
  • A simple cucumber and dill salad

How To Store Cabbage and Sausage

  • Refrigerate: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. Reheat in a skillet over medium heat or in the microwave.
  • Freeze: While possible, freezing may alter the texture of the cabbage. If you do freeze it, store it in a freezer-safe container for up to 2 months. Thaw in the refrigerator before reheating.

FAQs

Can I use a different type of cabbage?

Yes. While green cabbage is standard, you could use Savoy cabbage for a slightly milder flavor and more tender texture. Red cabbage would also work, but be aware it will change the color of the dish.

Can I make this dish spicy?

Of course. To add some heat, use a spicy smoked sausage like andouille. You can also add 1/2 teaspoon of red pepper flakes along with the garlic for a noticeable kick.

Is this recipe low-carb?

Yes, this is an excellent low-carb and keto-friendly meal. To keep it strictly low-carb, ensure your sausage has no added sugars and serve it as is, without starchy sides like potatoes or noodles.
