Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pound ground beef I used 85% lean
- 1 medium/large sweet Vidalia onion diced small
- 3 to 4 garlic cloves finely pressed or minced
- one small/medium head green cabbage cut into bite-sized pieces
- 4 cups cooked rice use two 8.8-ounce bags precooked rice to save time
- one 28-ounce can diced tomatoes in juice do not drain
- one 15-ounce can tomato sauce
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 to 3 teaspoons kosher salt or to taste; divided
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper or to taste
- ½ to 1 teaspoon paprika
- pinch or two of cayenne pepper optional and to taste
- pinch granulated sugar optional and to taste
- 2 to 4 tablespoons fresh parsley finely minced
Instructions
- To a large Dutch oven, add the olive oil, ground beef, onions, and cook over medium-high heat to brown the beef, crumbling it with a spatula as it cooks and stirring frequently to ensure even cooking. Cook for about 5 to 7 minutes or as necessary until beef is cooked through and onions are soft.
- Add the garlic and cook for about 1 minute, or until fragrant; stir frequently.
- Add the cabbage, rice, tomatoes with juice, tomato sauce, Worcestershire sauce, 2 teaspoons salt, pepper, paprika, and stir to combine. Cook for about 2 to 3 minutes or until cabbage begins to wilt a bit and tomato juice is gently boiling.
- Cover, reduce heat to medium-low, and allow to cook covered for about 10 minutes or until cabbage is as tender as desired. Stir once or twice while simmering.
- Taste, and if desired, add additional salt, optional cayenne (doesn’t make it spicy, makes it not bland and adds flavor), optional pinch of sugar (balances the acid from the tomatoes), and stir to combine.
- Garnish with parsley to taste and serve immediately.
Notes
- Recipe will keep airtight in the fridge for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
