Smothered Cabbage with Ham
Use your leftover ham in this comforting one-pot dish with cabbage and potatoes. The simple flavors get brightened at the end with a splash of cider vinegar.
Ingredients
- ¼ cup neutral oil, such as canola or avocado
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 1 cup diced ham
- 2 large cloves garlic, minced
- 10 cups coarsely chopped green cabbage
- 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
- 2 medium yukon gold potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch chunks
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground pepper
- 1 tablespoon cider vinegar
Directions
- Heat 1/4 cup oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook, stirring, until starting to brown, about 3 minutes. Add 1 cup ham and 2 minced garlic cloves; cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add 10 cups cabbage, 1 cup broth, potatoes, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to maintain a simmer; cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes. Remove the lid, increase heat to medium-high and continue cooking and stirring until most of the liquid has evaporated, 10 to 12 minutes. Stir in 1 tablespoon vinegar.
