Ingredients

  • 2 pounds Italian or Kielbasa sausage cooked, cooled, and sliced into ½" slices
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • ½ onion diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • ½ head cabbage shredded or finely sliced, about 6 cups
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • ½ teaspoon coarse salt
  • 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons butter

Instructions

  • Remove core from head of cabbage, and slice it in half. Shred cabbage using a sharp knife or mandolin.
  • Heat a pan over medium heat with olive oil. Add sliced sausage. Saute until browned and crisp, about 6 minutes per side. Remove, reserving drippings.
  • Add onion to pan. Saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for an additional minute until browned. Add cabbage, and cook for 12-15 minutes. Once cabbage has reduced and become soft and translucent with golden pieces, add red wine vinegar, worcestershire, salt and pepper to taste.
  • Add sausage back to skillet. Stir in butter. Cook for an additional minute until sausage is heated.

Notes

Add ½ teaspoon dried chili flakes for added kick, if desired.
