salt and black pepper to taste
1/4 -1/2 tsp Cajun seasoning optional

Notes

If available, use nitrate-free smoked bacon. It is more healthy and in reality does style better.

Reserve the bacon grease and add it to the skillet with the butter.

Slice your cabbage thin, so it cooks evenly and soaks up all that suitable butter and bacon grease.

Are you in a terrific huge hurry, and you have to get supper on the table? No problem. Chop the uncooked bacon and region it in the skillet over medium heat.

Cook it for 2-3 minutes stirring various times, then limit the warmness to medium-low. Then add the butter and onions and prepare dinner as directed. The bacon will now not be as crispy, however it will nonetheless be delicious.For a zippy tang, add a splash or two of apple cider vinegar.

This dish is excellent served promptly. If held in the skillet too long, the cabbage will overcook.

We like our cabbage with simply a tiny little bit of crispiness and shape left, however you can modify the cooking time to your texture preference.
