Ingredients
Sausage and Seasoning
- 1 tbsp Olive Oil
- 14 ounces Andouille sausage, sliced
- 3 tsp Cajun Seasoning
Vegetables and Dairy
- 1/2 Onion, chopped
- 5 cups Chopped Cabbage
- 6 tbsp Butter, divided (2 tbsp and 4 tbsp)
- 1 cup Heavy Whipping Cream
- 1/2 cup Grated Parmesan Cheese
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil: Warm 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat to prepare for searing the sausage.
- Sear the sausage: Add the sliced Andouille sausage to the hot skillet, cooking until browned on all sides, then remove and set aside.
- Add initial butter and onions: Lower heat to medium and add 2 tablespoons of butter to the skillet. Stir in chopped onions and sauté until they soften and become translucent.
- Add remaining butter and cabbage: Stir in the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter along with the chopped cabbage into the skillet.
- Season the cabbage: Sprinkle 3 teaspoons of Cajun seasoning evenly over the cabbage and stir to coat all ingredients thoroughly.
- Add cream and combine: Pour 1 cup of heavy whipping cream into the skillet and stir everything together to blend flavors evenly.
- Simmer covered: Cover the skillet with a lid and let the mixture simmer gently until the cabbage starts to become tender, absorbing the creamy sauce.
- Add Parmesan cheese: Remove the lid and stir in 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese. Continue to simmer, stirring until the sauce thickens and becomes creamy.
- Return sausage and serve: Put the browned sausage back into the skillet, mixing it with the creamy cabbage mixture, then serve hot.
Notes
- Use Andouille sausage for authentic Cajun flavor and spice.
- Adjust Cajun seasoning quantity to your preferred spice level.
- Chopping cabbage finely helps it cook faster and blend better with the sauce.
- If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of water or broth to thin it slightly.
- This dish can be served alone or with a side of cauliflower rice for extra volume.
