How to Make Cabbage and Sausage Skillet
- Start by slicing the smoked sausage into bite-sized pieces and chopping the cabbage into thin strips.
- In a large skillet over medium heat, add the extra virgin olive oil and cook the sausage pieces until they are nicely browned, about 5-7 minutes.
- Toss in the diced yellow onion and minced garlic, stirring until the onions become translucent, roughly 3-4 minutes.
- Add the chopped cabbage along with salt and pepper. Stir everything together and cook for about 10-15 minutes, until the cabbage is tender but still retains some crunch.
- Check your dish's flavor and adjust the seasoning. Add red pepper flakes for extra heat if desired.
- Plate your dish or serve it straight from the skillet for a rustic presentation.
