Ingredients
- Ingredient List
12 oz bow tie pasta
3 tbsp butter
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 tbsp olive oil
1 medium head green cabbage, shredded
Salt and pepper, to taste
12 oz smoked sausage, sliced
3 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese
- Alternative Ingredients
Olive oil ➜ canola or vegetable oil for sautéing
Butter ➜ margarine or vegan butter for dairy-free option
Parmesan cheese ➜ nutritional yeast or vegan Parmesan for a vegan or dairy-free option
Smoked sausage ➜ turkey sausage for a lower fat option or vegan sausage for a vegan option
Directions
- Pasta Preparation – Fill a large pot with water, season with a pinch of salt, and bring it to a boil over high heat. Carefully add the pasta and boil it until al dente, about 12 minutes, then drain.
- Cabbage Sauté – Using the same pot, melt the butter, then add olive oil, mixing the two fats for flavor. Stir in minced garlic for a fragrant base, then add the shredded cabbage. Season with salt and pepper, cooking until the cabbage is soft and slightly caramelized, approximately 15 minutes.
- Sausage Integration – Introduce the sausage to the cabbage mix, stirring continuously to ensure even heating and flavor mingling for about 5 minutes.
- Final Assembly – Add the drained pasta to the pot with cabbage and sausage, tossing all ingredients together to distribute heat and flavors evenly, this should take about another 5 minutes. Adjust seasoning if needed.
- Serving Suggestion – Plate the pasta while hot, sprinkling with fresh grated Parmesan cheese for a cheesy finish.
