Print Recipe
Equipment
Tongs
Large Cast Iron Skillet
Ingredients
1/2
pound
bacon
, cut into 1 inch slices
1/2
white onion
, diced
1
teaspoon
sugar
1
teaspoon
Kosher salt
1/2
teaspoon
ground black pepper
1
head green cabbage
, center removed and cut into 2-3 inch pieces
Instructions
In a
large skillet
over medium heat, cooked cut bacon until just crispy. Drain and set aside, reserving 1 tablespoon rendered bacon grease.
Add onion to the still hot bacon grease, saute over medium heat until it starts to soften, approximately 4-5 minutes.
Stir in sugar, Kosher salt and ground pepper, cooking for an additional minute.
Add
cut
cabbage. I find it easier to toss using tongs instead of as spoon. Toss over medium heat until leaves start to wilt, but still have some snap.
Add bacon back into the mixture and serve.
