Notes
The nutritional values in this dish will vary depending on the brands that you use. The values here were estimated using the values from Butterball's Natural Hardwood Smoked Turkey Sausage and are just an estimation.
- The cabbage should not be soggy – unless you really like it soggy. It should have a little bit of “bite” to it when you test it. Kind of like al dente pasta.
- The size of the cabbage you use will determine the amount of chicken broth or chicken stock that you will need. If you use a small cabbage, you might only need ¾ cup of stock. If you use a large cabbage, you might need 1 ½ cups of chicken broth.
- Like fresh garlic? You can substitute a couple of cloves garlic in place of the garlic powder.
- Want to add a bit of heat? You can add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the skillet when you add the cabbage.
