  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 Large Head of Cabbage, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon Avocado oil
  • 6 Strips of Bacon, cut into bite-size pieces
  • 1 package andouille sausage, sliced diagonally into 1/2 inch pieces
  • 1 lb Uncooked shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1 teaspoon Smoked Paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Cajun Seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon Lemon Pepper Seasoning
  • 2 tablespoons Butter
  • 1 Medium Onion, sliced
  • 1 Red Bell Pepper, sliced
  • 1 Orange Bell Pepper, sliced
  • 2 Garlic Cloves, minced
  • 2 teaspoons All Purpose Seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon Black Pepper
  • Pinch of Red Pepper Flakes

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet over medium heat, add your avocado oil and cook your chopped bacon and andouille sausage until browned and crisp, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from skillet.
  2. Add cajun seasoning, smoked paprika, and lemon pepper seasoning to your shrimp and toss. Then, add your shrimp to skillet and cook on each side for 60 seconds. Remove from skillet and set aside with the bacon and sausage.
  3. Save about a tsp of the remaining grease left from the bacon, sausage, and shrimp and add the 2 tbsp of butter. Toss in your onion and bell pepper and sauté until onion becomes translucent. Add your minced garlic and stir to combine.
  4. Add your chopped cabbage, turn the heat down to medium low, and put a lid on your skillet. The cabbage will begin to wilt down. After about 10-12 minutes, give the cabbage and pepper mixture a good mix to combine.
  5. Add your all-purpose seasoning, black pepper, and red pepper flakes and mix. Place the lid back on and cook on low for an additional 5 minutes.
  6. Remove lid. Add in your bacon, sausage, and shrimp. Give it a little stir to combine everything and serve over rice, with cornbread, or alone.
