Cabbage With Pecans And Bacon Recipes

SERIOUSLY GOOD BACON FRIED CABBAGE

Steps:

• Add bacon, in one layer, to a large skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally until the fat renders and the bacon is crispy; 6 to 8 minutes. Take the pan off of the heat, and then use a slotted spoon to transfer the bacon to a bowl and save for later.
• Remove all the bacon fat from the pan except for one tablespoon. (Leave more or less, depending on your preference. One tablespoon tastes great, but doesn't make the cabbage greasy.)
• Place the pan back onto medium-high heat then add the cabbage, garlic, red pepper flakes, and the salt. It might seem like too much cabbage for the pan, but as it cooks, the cabbage will wilt down.
• Cook, occasionally stirring until the cabbage is tender and some of the cabbage begins to turn light brown; 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in the mustard, apple cider vinegar, and the reserved cooked bacon. Taste then adjust with more salt, pepper, and vinegar as needed.

BACON PECAN CABBAGE

• In a large nonstick skillet, cook bacon until crispy. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
• Leave the bacon grease in the skillet and add cabbage. Once the cabbage cooks down some, add the garlic.
• Stir cabbage frequently and cook until it softens to your liking.
• Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add the bacon and pecans and serve.

CABBAGE WITH PECANS AND BACON

Steps:

• Boil the cabbage for about 10 minutes until soft but still crisp and green. Drain and keep warm. ( I usually use a large slotted spoon or strainer and just go from the pot to my skillet when I am ready for the cabbage).
• In a large texas skillet; cook the bacon until crisp then remove to a paper towel to drain. Remove most of the bacon grease from the skillet, leaving just enough to saute the garlic.
• Saute the garlic for about 1 minute then remove it to the paper towel with the bacon. When cool enough to handle, crumble the bacon into little pieces.
• Add the butter to the hot skillet and allow it to melt then add the cabbage and seasonings. Stir a bit then add back the bacon and garlic plus the pecans.
• Heat everything thru then serve.
