- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pound Kielbasa (or smoked sausage, sliced ½ inch thick)
- 1 medium yellow onion (thinly sliced)
- 6 cups chopped green cabbage (about ½ medium head of cabbage)
- 2 medium apples (*cored and sliced, peeling optional)
- ½ cup chicken broth
- ¼ cup apple juice (or apple cider (not vinegar))
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme leaves (or 2 sprigs fresh thyme)
- ¼ teaspoon salt (more to taste)
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Steps
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook 4 to 5 minutes or until browned. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Add onion and cabbage to the same skillet, adding more oil if needed. Cook 5 to 6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage begins to soften.
Stir in the apples and cook 3 to 4 minutes or until just tender.
In a small bowl, whisk together chicken broth, apple juice, Dijon, vinegar, thyme, salt, and pepper. Pour over the cabbage mixture.
Return the sausage to the skillet. Stir to combine.
Cook uncovered 5 minutes or until the cabbage is tender and the liquid has slightly reduced.
