Ingredients
- 6 thick slices of bacon
- 1 head cabbage
- 1 onion (diced)
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1/2- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2- 1 teaspoon paprika (or Cajun seasoning)
- salt and fresh cracked pepper to taste
Instructions
- Start by slicing the bacon into pieces that are just over a half inch, and give it a couple twists of fresh cracked pepper. Using a large skillet on medium high heat, fry up the bacon, and remove to paper towels when done.
- Using the bacon fat, add the onion and let it cook a minute or two before adding the garlic. Immediately stir in half the chopped cabbage and season with salt, pepper, onion powder, and paprika or Cajun seasoning. Stir and flip it over to get it all coated with the oil. Let the cabbage cook down for a few minutes. Add the rest of the cabbage and stir all together.
- Reduce heat and add bacon to cabbage, stir, and let simmer about 20-25 minutes stirring occasionally.
