Ingredients
– 1 medium head of cabbage, chopped
– 6 slices of bacon, chopped
– 1 large onion, chopped
– 2 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
– 1 teaspoon sugar
– Salt and pepper to taste
– 1/4 cup chicken broth (optional)
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
Preparation
1. **Cook Bacon:**
In a large skillet, cook the chopped bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove the bacon from the skillet and set aside, leaving the bacon fat in the skillet.
2. **Sauté Onions and Garlic:**
Add the chopped onion to the skillet with the bacon fat and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute.
3. **Cook Cabbage:**
Add the chopped cabbage to the skillet. If the skillet is too full, you can add it in batches. Sauté the cabbage until it starts to wilt, about 10 minutes.
4. **Add Vinegar and Seasonings:**
Stir in the apple cider vinegar and sugar. Season with salt and pepper to taste. If the cabbage mixture seems too dry, you can add a little chicken broth.
5. **Combine and Serve:**
Add the cooked bacon back into the skillet and stir to combine. Continue cooking until the cabbage is tender and cooked through, about 5 more minutes. Adjust seasoning as needed.
6. **Serve:**
Serve the sautéed cabbage with bacon hot. Enjoy as a side dish or a main course.
This dish is a comforting and flavorful addition to any meal. The combination of tender cabbage and crispy bacon is sure to be a hit.
