Ingredients
- 14 oz. kielbasa sliced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 yellow onion diced
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon brown sugar
- ½ teaspoon hot sauce
- ½ teaspoon dried parsley
- 5 cups green cabbage roughly chopped
- 1 cup carrots julienned
- Salt/Pepper to taste
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the sliced sausage and sauté until the edges are golden brown, about 4 minutes. Remove and set aside.
- Melt the butter in the same skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and soften for 7 minutes, a little longer than usual to develop more flavor. Add the garlic and cook for 2 more minutes.
- Add the chicken broth, mustard, brown sugar, hot sauce, and parsley and use a silicone spatula to “clean” the bottom and sides of the skillet, this will add more flavor to the dish.
- Increase heat to medium-high. Add the cabbage and carrots and season with salt and pepper. Sauté for 10 to 15 minutes, or until desired texture is obtained.
- Add the kielbasa back to the skillet and toss to combine and heat through.
- Serve with mashed potatoes! (Or your potato side dish of choice.) Steamed rice pair well too.

Notes
- Pro Tips
- Storage
- Nutritional information is an estimate and is per serving. There are 4 servings in this recipe.
- Hillshire Farm Polska Kielbasa is my favorite kind of sausage for this recipe, but any kind of cased sausage may be used.
- There is a hint of hot sauce in this recipe that doesn't make it spicy. It serves as a flavor enhancer along with mustard and a little brown sugar for a well-rounded flavor profile. I use Frank's Hot Sauce.
- Have leftover cabbage from this recipe? Try my Corned Beef and Cabbage, Egg Roll in a Bowl, Thai Chicken Salad, and Ramen Noodle Salad recipes next!
- For Serving: I love serving this with mashed potatoes. Other options include roasted potatoes, smashed potatoes, potato salad, and steamed rice.
- Store in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Leftovers do freeze/reheat well!
