Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 14 oz Andouille Sausage sliced into 1/4-inch rounds
  • 2 tbsp Butter
  • 1/2 cup Onion finely chopped
  • 3 cloves Garlic minced
  • 1/2 cup Chicken Broth
  • 1 cup Heavy Cream
  • 4 oz Cream Cheese softened and cubed
  • 1 tbsp Cajun Seasoning or to taste
  • 1 cup Parmesan Cheese freshly grated
  • 1 medium head Cabbage roughly chopped
  • 2 tbsp Fresh Parsley chopped, for garnish

Equipment

  • 1 Large Skillet
  • 1 Knife
  • 1 Cutting Board

Instructions
 

Main
  1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced Andouille sausage and cook until browned on both sides, about 4-5 minutes. Remove the sausage from the skillet and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, melt the butter. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  3. Pour in the chicken broth to deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Stir in the heavy cream, cubed cream cheese, and Cajun seasoning. Whisk constantly until the cream cheese is fully melted and the sauce is smooth.
  4. Reduce the heat to low. Gradually stir in the freshly grated Parmesan cheese until the sauce is creamy and thickened. Do not allow the sauce to boil.
  5. Add the chopped cabbage to the skillet and stir to coat everything in the sauce. Cover the skillet and cook for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is tender-crisp.
  6. Return the cooked sausage to the skillet. Stir to combine and cook for 1-2 minutes more to heat through. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.

Notes

Tip 1: For the creamiest sauce, use freshly grated Parmesan cheese. Pre-shredded varieties contain additives that can make the sauce grainy.
Tip 2: Adjust the Cajun seasoning to your personal spice preference. Some brands are spicier than others.
Tip 3: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
