FRIED CABBAGE

Recipe Directions

1. In a large skillet or frying pan, cook the chopped bacon over medium heat until crispy.
2. Remove the cooked bacon from the pan and set aside, leaving the rendered bacon fat in the pan.
3. In the same skillet, add the diced onion and minced garlic. Cook until the onion is soft and translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
4. Add the thinly sliced cabbage to the skillet, along with the paprika, salt, and pepper.
5. Cook the cabbage, stirring occasionally, until it is tender and caramelized, about 10-15 minutes.
6. Once the cabbage is cooked to your desired level of tenderness, stir in the cooked bacon pieces.
7. Taste and adjust the seasoning, if necessary.
8. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley or green onions, if desired, before serving.
