Ingredients
2 tablespoons oil
1 cup onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 lb ground beef
1 small cabbage, chopped
1 can (15 oz) diced tomatoes
1 tablespoon bouillon powder
½ teaspoon ground cumin
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
Salt and black pepper, to taste
Instructions
Heat oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add chopped onions and minced garlic. Sauté until fragrant, about 2–3 minutes.
Add ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks. Drain excess fat if necessary.
Stir in chopped cabbage and cook for about 5 minutes, until it starts to soften.
Add diced tomatoes (with juice), bouillon powder, cumin, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.
Cover and simmer for 15–20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until cabbage is tender and flavors are blended.
Serve hot on its own, or over rice, mashed potatoes, or with a slice of crusty bread.
Notes
Add cooked rice directly into the skillet for a one-dish meal.
For a lighter version, use ground turkey or chicken.
Want more heat? Add extra cayenne or a few red pepper flakes.
Leftovers store well in the fridge for up to 3 days.
