Instructions:
- In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove and set aside, leaving the rendered fat in the pan.
- Add the sliced onion to the bacon fat and sauté until soft and slightly golden, about 5–7 minutes.
- Stir in the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
- Add the shredded cabbage, season with salt and pepper, and cook until the cabbage is tender and slightly caramelized (about 10–15 minutes).
- Return the bacon to the pan, mix well, and serve warm.
🧡 Why It’s Worth Trying Again
Even if sautéed cabbage didn’t win your heart the first time, a well-prepared version might change your mind. Try experimenting with different additions—like apple slices for sweetness, a dash of vinegar for brightness, or smoked paprika for depth.
