Savory Cabbage and Ground Beef Skillet:

Instructions:

  1. Cook the Ground Beef:
    Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the ground beef. Cook it until browned, breaking it apart with a spoon as it cooks. Drain any excess fat.
  2. Add Onion and Garlic:
    Add the chopped onion and garlic to the skillet. Stir well and cook for 2-3 minutes, until softened and fragrant.
  3. Cook the Cabbage:
    Add the chopped cabbage to the skillet and stir everything together. Drizzle with olive oil, smoked paprika (if using), and season with salt and pepper. Continue to cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage starts to soften.
  4. Add Broth and Simmer:
    Pour in the beef broth (or water) and soy sauce (if using). Stir everything together, cover, and let it simmer on low heat for another 10-15 minutes, or until the cabbage is tender and the flavors are well combined. If needed, add more broth or water to keep things moist.
  5. Taste and Adjust:
    Taste the dish and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Add more salt, pepper, or soy sauce if desired.
  6. Serve:
    Serve your savory cabbage and ground beef skillet on its own or with a side of rice, potatoes, or crusty bread. Enjoy!
