Sausage Night

Ingredients

  • Two Hillshire Farms kielbasas
  • One sliced-up green cabbage
  • Couple smashed up cloves of garlic (optional)
  • Half a yellow onion (optional)
  • Canola oil
  • Soy sauce
  • Balsamic vinegar
  • Jasmine rice or similar

Method

  1. Slice kielbasa into little discs (maybe ¼ inch thick)
  2. Slice onion how you like it
  3. Heat up some canola oil and garlic on medium-high in your biggest non-stick skillet
  4. Throw in the kielbasa and onion
  5. Saute the kielbasa on one side until it’s a little brown
  6. Flip the discs and onion in the pan and add a slorp of soy sauce and half a lid of balsamic vinegar
  7. When the sausage seems pretty good, toss in as much cabbage as will fit and still accommodate a lid
  8. Cover the pan for a couple minutes
  9. When the volume of cabbage decreases a little, toss the whole mix around, making sure the cabbage gets dredged in the yummy kielbasa juice
  10. Reduce heat to low
  11. Add some pepper and a little more vinegar and soy sauce
  12. Toss it around vigorously again and re-cover
  13. Take it off after cabbage starts to soften but well before it gets too soggy and gross (unless that’s how you like it)
  14. Serve over rice in a giant bowl
