Portuguese Sausage and Cabbage Stir-Fry (Keto)

Ingredients

• 1 lb Portuguese Chouriço Sausage
• 1/2 medium Green Cabbage
• 2 tbsp Olive Oil
• 4 cloves Garlic
• 1/4 tsp Red Pepper Flakes
• 1/2 tsp Salt
• 1/4 tsp Black Pepper

Instructions

1. 1Place a 12-inch skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the 2 tablespoons of olive oil and let it heat until it shimmers, about 1 minute.
2. 2Add the 1 lb of Portuguese chouriço sausage to the hot skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the sausage is browned and slightly crispy on the edges, about 5 to 7 minutes. You will hear it sizzling and see it releasing its oils.
3. 3While the sausage cooks, prepare the vegetables. Slice the 1/2 medium green cabbage into thin shreds. Mince the 4 cloves of garlic.
4. 4Add the shredded 1/2 medium green cabbage and the minced 4 cloves of garlic to the skillet with the cooked sausage. Stir everything together well.
5. 5Continue to stir-fry the mixture for about 5 to 7 minutes, or until the cabbage has softened to your desired tenderness but still has a slight crispness. The garlic will become fragrant.
6. 6Sprinkle the 1/4 teaspoon of red pepper flakes, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper over the stir-fry. Stir again to distribute the seasonings evenly throughout the dish.
7. 7Remove the skillet from the heat. Serve the Portuguese sausage and cabbage stir-fry immediately.
