Description
A quick and satisfying one-pan stir fry featuring savory sausage, crisp cabbage, and vibrant bell peppers.
Ingredients
- 1 pound sausage (Italian, smoked kielbasa, or your favorite link), sliced into rounds
- 1 medium cabbage (green or red), thinly sliced
- 1 bell pepper (any color), thinly sliced
- 1 onion (yellow or white), sliced
- 1-2 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (or neutral oil like vegetable or canola)
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- Optional: shredded carrots, broccoli florets, or snap peas
Instructions
- Slice the sausage into 1/4–1/2-inch rounds. Cut the onion and bell peppers into thin strips. Shred or thinly slice the cabbage. Mince the garlic.
- Heat a large skillet or wok over medium heat and add the olive oil.
- Add the sliced sausage and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, about 4–5 minutes.
- Push the sausage to one side. Add the onion and garlic, sautéing until the onion is translucent, about 2–3 minutes.
- Add the cabbage and bell peppers, stir-frying until tender-crisp, about 5–7 minutes.
- Pour in the soy sauce, stirring to combine, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook for an additional 1–2 minutes.
- Serve hot straight from the pan, with rice or noodles if desired.
Notes
Leftovers are great wrapped in warm tortillas for a quick lunch. Adjust seasonings to taste, especially when using sausage, which is often already seasoned.
