## Ingredients

- 3 tbsp butter or olive oil

- 1 count small green cabbage — chopped

- ½ count onion — chopped

- ½ lb smoked sausage — sliced

- 1 can Diced tomatoes — undrained (or diced fresh tomatoes). (15 ounces) is the source parenthetical; original US quantity controls. Source can is 15 ounces, undrained.

- ½ count green bell pepper — diced

- 4 tsp cajun seasoning

- ¾ cup chicken broth

- ½ tsp Salt. Or to taste.

- ½ tsp Black pepper. Or to taste.

- 2 count scallions — sliced, for garnish

- Not specified Lime wedges or slices — optional. Unquantified in source; use to taste or as optional garnish as stated. Unquantified amount remains unknown, not zero. Optional; excluded or included as stated in the publisher nutrition.

## Equipment

- Stovetop and large skillet

- Knife and cutting board

- Instant-read thermometer

## Cook

Prepare cold sides first. Keep raw-poultry tools separate; use clean serving utensils. Probe more than one thick piece. A timer is not a doneness test.

1. **Step 1.** Slice the sausage; chop cabbage, onion and pepper. Brown sausage in a nonstick skillet for about 3 minutes, then reserve it and wipe the pan.

2. **Step 2.** Heat the butter or oil. Stir-fry cabbage and onion over medium-high heat for 5 minutes until wilting.

3. **Step 3.** Return sausage with tomatoes, bell pepper, broth and Cajun seasoning. Cover over medium-low heat for 10 minutes. Uncover and reduce the liquid until cabbage is tender; season and finish with scallions and optional lime.

## Attention timeline

Stages can overlap; endpoints and appliance behavior override the estimate.

## Nutrition per serving

Calories: Not provided; protein: Not provided; total carbs: Not provided; fiber: Not provided; net carbs: Not provided

Source nutrition is reported only where its per-portion basis is supported. Unavailable totals are not estimated.

Known allergens for these plates: milk. Check product labels and cross-contact.

## First-cook checks and limits

- The publisher lists 291 calories without a serving size or complete nutrition breakdown; per-portion nutrition remains unreported.

- Ingredient quantities are scaled from 4 original portions to four portions. Fractions of whole items may need weighing or dividing after preparation. Larger batches need extra cooking space or batches; keep thickness and endpoint checks.

- Adapted from Christina Cherrier. This adaptation has not been kitchen-tested.

- The source does not provide verified values for every per-portion macronutrient. Missing values stay unreported; a keto label from the publisher is not a verified net-carb total.

- Safe doneness checks are added to the publisher method; timers alone do not establish doneness.

## Leftovers

Refrigerate in shallow containers within two hours, or one hour above 90°F. Use within 3–4 days or freeze; reheat to 165°F. Keep cold greens and yogurt separate.
