Kielbasa and Cabbage Skillet

This Kielbasa and cabbage skillet is insanely good and can be on the table in less than 30 minutes. Onions and cabbage are kissed with caramelization while soaking up some of the irresistible, smokey pork juices. Fennel seed gives the dish a pop of warm, bright flavor while Dijon mustard and apple cider vinegar add tang and acidity. Enjoy this dish alone, piled high on a bun or as a side. Perfect for dinner any night of the week, a party or meal prep.
