- Serves:
-
6
ingredients
- 1 (2 -2 1/2 lb) cabbage
- 2 large idaho potatoes, about 2 1/2 pounds
- 12 ounces lean bacon, cut into 1/2-inch dice
- 2 cups yellow onions, peeled and sliced lengthwise
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 cups homemade chicken stock or 2 cups canned low sodium chicken broth
directions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Rinse the cabbage under cold running water and remove the tough outer leaves. Cut the cabbage into quarters and remove the hard core. Cut the cabbage quarters into halves and place, rounded side down, in a roasting pan.
- Cut the potatoes in half crosswise and peel. Cut the peeled potato halves into quarters, and arrange in the roasting pan, alternating with the cabbage pieces.
- Fry the bacon in a heavy medium skillet for 7 minutes. Add the sliced onions, salt, and black pepper to the pan and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Evenly distribute the bacon mixture and pan drippings over the vegetables, then pour the chicken stock on top. Tightly cover the pan with aluminum foil and bake for 1 1/2 hours.
- Remove the pan from the oven and allow to sit, covered, for 15 minutes before serving. Serve the vegetables with the bacon and broth spooned over them.

We so enjoyed this meal. I made it vegetarian, so instead of using bacon, I used 3 slices of Morningstar Farms pretend bacon strips, added 1/8 tsp. liquid smoke to the vegetarian chicken broth, and added 1 T. margarine just before baking. The result was a very satisfying meal that we all enjoyed very much -- great flavors and textures. I especially liked how easy it was to make and that I could just throw it in the oven and forget about it until dinner time. I made some caraway biscuits to sop up the juices. Oh, and with our leftover cabbage & potato bake, I just whizzed it up in the blender and heated for instant caldo verde the next day. This is a keeper recipe.
