Monday Night Cabbage Bacon And Peppers Recipes

FRIED CABBAGE WITH BACON AND ONIONS

Steps:

• 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. 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). Stir occasionally until cabbage is softened. I like some pieces to get a little pan browned so I don't stir very often. Taste before serving as you may need to add more salt and pepper depending on your preference.

Steps:

• Place the bacon in a large stockpot and cook over medium-high heat until crispy, about 10 minutes. Add the onion and garlic; cook and stir until the onion caramelizes; about 10 minutes. Immediately stir in the cabbage and continue to cook and stir another 10 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and paprika. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer, stirring occasionally, about 30 minutes more.

ROASTED CABBAGE WITH CRISPY BACON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Lightly coat a 15x10-inch roasting pan with 1/2 tablespoon of the olive oil.
• Slice the cabbage into 1-inch thick steaks, lengthwise, keeping the core intact.
• Brush both sides of each cabbage steak with the remaining olive oil. Sprinkle the shallot, garlic, salt, and pepper over each one. Arrange cabbage steaks on the roasting pan (overlapping slightly is fine, if necessary.)
• Transfer to the oven and roast for 20 minutes. Gently turn each steak over and roast for an additional 15 minutes, until the cabbage is tender and a little charred around the edges.
• In the meantime, cook your bacon! You can either:1. Cook it in the oven with the cabbage - line a rimmed baking sheet with foil coated with cooking spray. Lay the strips of bacon on the baking sheet, without overlapping. Transfer to oven and cook for 20-25 minutes until crispy. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Once cooled, crumble into pieces.2. Cook it in a fry pan - diced up the bacon. In a medium nonstick skillet, cook bacon over medium-high heat until browned and crispy, about 5-6 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer to a paper-towel lined plate to drain.
• Sprinkle the crispy bacon over the roasted cabbage and serve immediately.

FRIED CABBAGE & BACON

Steps:

• Saute the onion and bacon in the olive oil in a large pot until the onion is softened and the bacon is cooked through; add the garlic and cook for about another two minutes, stirring frequently.
• Add the cabbage to the pot; it will take up a lot of room but will wilt down as it cooks.
• Cook until the cabbage is done, stirring frequently.
• It will take about ten to twelve minutes; if you want a softer cabbage, cover the pot and let it steam for about an extra five minutes or so.
• If desired, a little bit of sugar and vinegar can be added near the end of cooking time.

SERIOUSLY GOOD BACON FRIED CABBAGE

Steps:

• Add bacon, in one layer, to a large skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally until the fat renders and the bacon is crispy; 6 to 8 minutes. Take the pan off of the heat, and then use a slotted spoon to transfer the bacon to a bowl and save for later.
• Remove all the bacon fat from the pan except for one tablespoon. (Leave more or less, depending on your preference. One tablespoon tastes great, but doesn't make the cabbage greasy.)
• Place the pan back onto medium-high heat then add the cabbage, garlic, red pepper flakes, and the salt. It might seem like too much cabbage for the pan, but as it cooks, the cabbage will wilt down.
• Cook, occasionally stirring until the cabbage is tender and some of the cabbage begins to turn light brown; 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in the mustard, apple cider vinegar, and the reserved cooked bacon. Taste then adjust with more salt, pepper, and vinegar as needed.
