Fried Cabbage with Bacon and Onions


 

Fried Cabbage: A Low Carb Delight

Fried cabbage is a basic staple item in the low carb world. Surprisingly, I've never tried it until I made it tonight. It was so good! I feel like I've been missing out on something by not trying it sooner. My kids didn't care much for it, but my carb-etarian Hubs thought it was excellent!

I looked up a few recipes to get a feel for how to prepare it and wound up cooking it in a very similar way to how I cook my Bacon and Onion Green Beans, which are heaven on a plate (this cabbage ranks right up there). I think you can cook anything with bacon, onions, salt, and pepper and it will come out fabulous! I served this with the Laughing Cow Steak and thought they were a nice combo on my plate. Bring on the cabbage! *INDUCTION FRIENDLY*

5 STARS
6 servings (if using as a side dish)
6 net carbs per serving

Ingredients

  • 1 medium head green cabbage, chopped loosely
  • 3 slices bacon, chopped
  • 1/4 large onion or 1/2 small to medium onion, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (optional)
  • Salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. In a large pan, cook the chopped bacon over medium to medium-high heat. Once the fat renders off and there's plenty of bacon grease in the pan, add the chopped onion.
  2. Right when the bacon has just started to crisp, add the chopped cabbage, salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce (optional but I like the tiny bit of smokey tang that it gives some foods).
  3. Stir occasionally until the cabbage is softened. I like some pieces to get a little pan browned, so I don't stir very often.
  4. Taste before serving as you may need to add more salt and pepper depending on your preference.
