Fried Cabbage with Bacon Onion and Garlic

Fried Cabbage with Bacon, Onion, and Garlic

Ingredients:

  • 6 slices of thick-cut bacon, chopped into small pieces
  • 1 large onion, finely diced
  • 4 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 large head of cabbage, cored and thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon of salt, or to taste
  • 1 teaspoon of freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon of onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon of smoked paprika for added depth (optional)
  • A pinch of red pepper flakes for some heat (optional)
  • Fresh parsley or green onions, chopped, for garnish

Instructions:

  1. Cook the Bacon: In a large stockpot or Dutch oven, cook the chopped bacon over medium-high heat until it becomes crispy and releases its fat, about 10-12 minutes. Stir occasionally to ensure even cooking.
  2. Caramelize the Onion and Garlic: Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the pot with the bacon. Continue to cook and stir until the onions turn golden brown and caramelize, and the garlic becomes fragrant, about 10-15 minutes. This step allows the flavors to develop and infuse into the dish.
  3. Incorporate the Cabbage: Once the onions are caramelized, add the thinly sliced cabbage to the pot. Stir well to combine all the ingredients. Cook the cabbage, stirring occasionally, until it begins to wilt and soften, about 10-15 minutes.
  4. Seasoning: Sprinkle the salt, black pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika (if using), and red pepper flakes (if using) over the cabbage mixture. Stir to evenly distribute the seasonings and adjust the amount of salt and pepper according to your taste preferences.
  5. Simmer and Infuse Flavors: Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot with a lid, and let the cabbage mixture simmer gently. Allow the flavors to meld together, stirring occasionally, for about 30-40 minutes. This slow simmering process enhances the taste and texture of the dish.
  6. Serve: Once the cabbage is tender and infused with all the delicious flavors, remove the pot from the heat. Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Transfer the fried cabbage to a serving dish, garnish with freshly chopped parsley or green onions for a pop of color and freshness, and serve hot as a flavorful side dish or a hearty main course.
