Ingredients
- 1 pound smoked kielbasa bias-cut into 1 inch thick slices
- 2-3 teaspoons olive oil divided
- 1 onion chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 head cabbage small to medium, 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 pounds, cored and coarsely chopped or sliced
- 1 ½ cups apple cider or beer or wine or broth
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar

Instructions
- Slice the kielbasa on the diagonal (or bite-sized).
- In a Dutch oven or large sautee pan cook the kielbasa in 2 teaspoons hot oil over medium-high heat until browned, about 5 minutes. Remove and set aside. Drain partially if there is excessive fat in the pan (there was none in my pan)
- If needed, add remaining teaspoon of oil, then add onion and garlic to the pot. Cook until onion is tender, 5-10 minutes.
- Stir in the remaining ingredients. including the reserved kielbasa, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, until cabbage is tender, about 15-20 minutes. Uncover and continue cooking until liquid is reduced, about 10 minutes.
