There is nothing quite like a one pan dinner to make a busy weeknight feel a little easier. I love how the cabbage gets soft and sweet while the potatoes turn nice and golden in the pan, soaking up all that delicious flavor from the sausage.

My biggest tip for this recipe is to make sure you cut your potatoes into small, even pieces. This helps them cook through at the same time as the cabbage so you do not end up with any crunchy bites.

🧺 Ingredients

1 pound smoked sausage, sliced into rounds
1 pound Yukon gold potatoes, cut into 1 inch cubes
1 small head green cabbage, chopped into bite sized pieces
1 small yellow onion, diced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Salt and black pepper to taste
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons mayonnaise

👩‍🍳Instructions

1
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.
2
Add the sliced sausage and cook until it starts to brown, then remove it from the pan and set it aside.
3
Add the potatoes to the same skillet and cook for about 8 to 10 minutes until they begin to soften and turn golden.
4
Stir in the onion and cook for another 3 minutes until it is translucent.
5
Add the chopped cabbage to the pan along with the garlic powder, salt, and pepper, stirring well to combine.
6
Cover the pan and let it cook for about 5 to 7 minutes until the cabbage is tender.
7
Add the sausage back into the pan and toss everything together to heat through.
8
Whisk the Dijon mustard and mayonnaise together in a small bowl to make your sauce.
9
Serve the dish warm with a drizzle of the Dijon sauce and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese on top.

💡 Tips

This dish stores well in the fridge for up to three days in an airtight container. If you have leftovers, it tastes great reheated in a pan over medium heat. You can also add a splash of apple cider vinegar to the cabbage if you like a bit of extra tang.
