Sauteed cabbage the way it is supposed to be: tender, juicy and outrageously delicious. This cabbage side dish is good enough to serve all on its own, but pairs perfectly with a thick cut pork chop!

Ingredients
3StripsBacon
½Onion(Spanish) sliced thin. Approx 1 cup
1/CupShallotsliced thin
2tablespoonGarlicsliced thin. Approx 2 large garlic cloves
Heat a large, heavy bottom saute pan over medium high heat. Add the bacon and cook until crisp. Reserve the fat in the pan and remove the bacon.
Add the onion and a pinch of salt. Cook for 3 minutes and then add in the shallot. Cook another 3 minutes, stirring. Add in the cabbage and 2 teaspoon salt. Saute for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the garlic and cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly so the garlic does not burn.
Add in the beef stock, cover the pan and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 35 minutes.
Remove the cover and add in the apples and cider vinegar. Stir to incorporate. Cover and cook another 10-12 minutes, or until the apples have started to soften.
Remove the lid and turn the heat to high. When the liquid has evaporated, turn the heat to medium-high and saute the cabbage, stirring frequently.
Serve hot and happy eating!
Notes
The cooking time for the apples simply depends on how large you sliced them. A smaller dice will take less time while a larger dice will take quite a bit longer!
