Ham and Cabbage (One Pan)
This ham and cabbage recipe is a one pan meal that's simple on ingredients and big on flavor. The cabbage cooks down and becomes so tender that it melts in your mouth. It's affordable and ready to serve in 30 minutes.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds cooked ham
- 1 small head green cabbage
- 1 medium yellow onion
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or bacon grease
- 2 teaspoons coarse kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
- Fresh parsley and/or green onions optional for garnish
Instructions
- Cut the ham and cabbage into bite-size pieces. (I like to cut the cabbage into about 1-inch squares.)
- Slice the onions.
- In a deep skillet with a lid, heat olive oil over medium-high heat.
- Add the ham and onion and cook for about 5-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions turn translucent
- Stir in cabbage, salt, and pepper, and cook for 5 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Add chicken broth and cook everything, covered, for 10 minutes.
- Stir in apple cider vinegar. If you want more tender cabbage, cook for another 5 minutes or so.
- Garnish with fresh parsley and/or green onions before serving.
Notes
Storing Tips:
- Store any leftover ham and cabbage in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat on the stovetop or in the microwave with a splash of stock for a few minutes until fully warmed through.
- We don't recommend freezing this recipe as it will change the texture of the cabbage and make it mushy.
