I'm always looking for dinner recipes that are fast, easy and don't need a lot of clean up. I was looking for a recipe for cabbage and sausages. I ended up combining the ingredients and cooking methods of two recipes. For wintertime comfort food, we thought it quite tasty as well as fast, easy and cheap!
Roasted Cabbage with Sausages and Yams
3 T. olive oil
½ c. sweet onion, sliced lengthwise
1 small cabbage, roughly shredded
1 Pink Lady or Granny Smith apple, cored and sliced into 16 wedges
1 tsp thyme
¼ tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
12 ounces pre-cooked chicken sausage (4 sausages)
12 ounces yam, cut into wedges
Salt & pepper to taste
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 T olive oil
1 T wine vinegar
Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Line a sheet pan(s) with parchment paper.
Mix together cabbage, onions, apples, thyme and red pepper flakes with 2 T olive oil. Spread in a single layer on the sheet pan. Sprinkle with salt & pepper.
Mix yams with remaining 1 T olive oil. Spread in a single layer on the sheet pan. Sprinkle with salt & pepper. Place sausages on sheet pan.
Roast 10 to 15 minutes until the vegetables are tender. The yams may need to go into the oven five minutes before the remaining ingredients depending on their size.
Mix together the olive oil, vinegar and Djion mustard. Pour over cabbage mixture once in the serving bowl.
This can be served in one large bowl or platter. The vegetables will be more crispy and with singed edges if spaced so they are not touching, otherwise they will steam vs. roast.
