Stewed Cabbage And Potatoes With Pork Sausage
I've also updated this dish and made it a one-pot meal. This is my Stewed Cabbage and Potatoes With Pork Sausage.
Equipment
- 1 saute pan 12-inch
- 1 stock pot Large
- 1 chef's knife
- 1 cutting board
- 2 mixing bowls large
- 1 mesh sieve
Ingredients
- 2 tbsps olive oil
- 2 16-ounce rolls Jimmy Dean regular pork sausage Cooked and drained excess fat
- 1 sprig fresh rosemary
- 2 heads green cabbage Cores removed and quartered
- 10 cups baby Yukon gold potatoes Quartered, smaller ones left whole
- 1 large onion Diced
- 3 cloves garlic Minced
- 1 quart chicken stock Unsalted
- 1 tsp red pepper flakes
- 1 1/2 tbsps kosher salt
- 1 tsp black pepper Freshly-ground
Garnish:
- 1/4 cup Italian flat-leaf parsley Finely chopped
Instructions
- In a large preheated sauté pan over medium-high heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil, red pepper flakes, and the rolls of pork sausage. Use the back of a wooden spoon to break up the sausage. Add a sprig of fresh rosemary and cook until no longer pink, 10 to 12 minutes. Pour the browned sausage into a mesh sieve placed over a large glass mixing bowl. Allow the sausage the drain as much of its fat as possible along with the rosemary. Set aside while moving on to the next task.Back to the stockpot over medium-high heat, add another tablespoon of olive oil and diced onions. Stirring occasionally, cook the onions until soft and translucent, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the minced garlic, and cook for 1 minute longer before adding the cooked sausage, potatoes, and chicken stock.In the meantime, core and quarter the cabbage. Drop the cabbage into the pot, add grated nutmeg, and gently push the cabbage down into the liquid. Reduce the heat to medium, cover, and cook for 30 minutes. Uncover and cook for an additional 15 minutes until potatoes are fork-tender and cabbage is cooked through.Ladle a good helping into a porcelain serving bowl, garnish with finely chopped Italian flat-leaf parsley, and serve hot.There you have it, my Stewed Cabbage and Potatoes With Pork Sausage.

If calorie count and nutritional value are important to you, I recommend running the ingredients through the online nutritional calculator of your choice.

2) Tip: For a clean broth, cook the sausage in a separate pan first, allowing it to render its fat. Drain before adding the cooked sausage to the main dish.
