Ingredients
- about 450 g Kielbasa Sausage
- 1 medium head Cabbage (shredded)
- 1 medium Onion (diced)
- 4 slices Bacon
- 2 tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar
- 1 tsp Caraway Seeds
- 1 tbsp Olive Oil
- 1/2 tsp Salt
- 1/4 tsp Black Pepper
Original measure retained: its cup/spoon or fluid-volume standard is unspecified.
Instructions
- 1Place 4 slices of bacon in a cold 30.48 cm skillet. Turn the heat to medium (176.7°C / 175°C) and cook the bacon until it is crispy, about 8-10 minutes. Remove the bacon from the skillet and place it on a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Leave the rendered bacon fat in the skillet.
- 2Add the 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the bacon fat in the 30.48 cm skillet. Add the 1 medium onion, diced, to the skillet. Cook over medium heat (176.7°C / 175°C), stirring often, until the onion is softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
- 3Add the 1 medium head of cabbage, shredded, and the 1 teaspoon of caraway seeds to the skillet. Cook over medium heat (176.7°C / 175°C), stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is tender and has some lightly browned edges, about 10-12 minutes.
- 4Slice the about 450 g of kielbasa sausage into 1.27 cm thick rounds. Add the sliced kielbasa to the skillet with the cabbage and onions. Cook over medium heat (176.7°C / 175°C), stirring occasionally, until the sausage is heated through and slightly browned, about 5 minutes.
- 5Stir the 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar, the 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and the 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper into the skillet mixture. Cook for 1 minute more, stirring to combine everything.
- 6Crumble the cooked bacon into small pieces. Sprinkle the crumbled bacon over the top of the kielbasa and cabbage mixture in the skillet.
- 7Serve the Keto Polish Sausage and Cabbage Skillet hot.
