Tasty Skillet Kielbasa and Cabbage

I love all kinds of sausage and I love cabbage. This easy dish is so satisfying, real comfort food.

Kielbasa & Cabbage Skillet

2# kielbasa, cut lengthwise, then into 2" pieces
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 cabbage, coarsely chopped
1 large sweet onion, cut into large pieces
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tsp sugar
1/2 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp pepper
2 tsp rice wine vinegar
1 1/2 tsp grainy mustard

Cook kielbasa in oil without stirring 1-2 minutes. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, approximately 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate with a slotted spoon.

In same pan, add cabbage, onion, garlic, sugar, salt and pepper. Cook approximately 10 minutes, tossing/stirring, until golden.

Mix vinegar and mustard together and add to cabbage. Add sausage, cook until heated through. Adjust seasoning.

Can serve as is or over mashed potatoes.

Variation

Potatoes and/or rutabaga can also be added. Cut into bite-sized cubes, salt and pepper to taste, and sauté or roast in olive oil at 425° for approximately 1/2 hour, till tender and golden. Add to cabbage and onion mix; you'll need more vinegar and mustard.

You can substitute Italian sausage (or any sausage you like for that matter) for the kielbasa.
