Ingredients (raw weights)

Steps

  1. Start by finely dicing 1 large yellow onion, 1 red bell pepper, and 2 jalapeño peppers (deseed to make less spicy). Set them aside, separately
  2. Next, grab 1 small head of green cabbage, core it, then roughly chop it into bite-size pieces. You want pieces that soften over time but have some body, thats important here! Set it aside.
  3. Bring a pan to medium heat. Add 1 tbsp olive oil. Add your onions, 2-3 finely minced garlic cloves, a couple pinches of salt and pepper, then sauté until translucent.
  4. Add 2 lbs ground beef (I used 85/15), 1 packet of taco seasoning, 1 tbsp smoked paprika, and 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper. Then using a spatula break it down so it’s finely minced.
  5. When it’s browned up, add your finely diced bell pepper and jalapeño, pour in 1/2 cup of bone broth, then toss in your cabbage, add a couple pinches of salt, and cover the lid on medium heat.
  6. Let everything steam, covered, for 10-15 minutes until the cabbage has cooked down and softened. Remove the lid, give everything a really good mix so the cabbage gets coated in all those juices and seasonings, then cook uncovered for another 3-4 minutes until most of the liquid has absorbed.
  7. Serve it up as is, or top with whatever you like (sour cream or finely chopped cilantro would be great, with a squeeze of fresh lime!)
