A quick and flavorful dish combining tender cabbage, smoky sausage, and a hint of spice.
Slice the smoked sausage into bite-sized pieces.
Ensure the sausage pieces are evenly sized for consistent cooking.
Chop the cabbage into thin strips and dice the onion.
Use a sharp knife to make chopping easier and safer.
In a large skillet, cook the sausage over medium heat until browned, about 5 minutes. Remove and set aside.
Stir occasionally to ensure even browning.
In the same skillet, melt the butter and add the cabbage and onion. Cook, stirring frequently, until the cabbage begins to soften, about 7 minutes.
Adjust the heat if needed to prevent the vegetables from burning.
Add the diced tomatoes, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir to combine.
Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
Return the sausage to the skillet and mix well. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until everything is heated through.
Ensure the sausage is evenly distributed throughout the dish.
Serve the dish warm, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
