Provided by á-25010

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
6 ounces sweet Italian turkey sausage links
3/4 cup 1/2-inch diced red potatoes
2 cups packaged shredded cabbage, preferably "angel hair" style (see Tips for Two)
1 small bulb fennel, quartered, cored and thinly sliced, plus 1 tablespoon chopped feathery tops
1 small onion, sliced
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon fennel seed
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth
2 tablespoons white-wine vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoons brown or whole-grain mustard

Steps:

Heat 1 teaspoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add sausage and cook, turning often, until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Transfer the sausage to a cutting board and slice into 1/2-inch pieces. (The sausage will not be thoroughly cooked, but it will continue cooking later.) Add the remaining 1 teaspoon oil to the pan and heat over medium heat. Add potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes. Add cabbage, sliced fennel, onion, garlic powder, fennel seed and pepper. Cook, stirring often, until the cabbage has wilted slightly, about 3 minutes more. Add broth, vinegar and mustard. Stir to incorporate the mustard; bring to a simmer. Place the sausage on top of the cabbage mixture; cover, reduce heat to medium-low and cook until the sausage is cooked through and the vegetables are tender, 7 to 10 minutes. Stir in chopped fennel fronds and serve. TIPS & NOTES Tips for Two: Refrigerate leftover cabbage for up to 1 week. Add to salads or soup; Vinegary Coleslaw or Warm Apple-Cabbage Slaw.

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 pounds hot or mild (or a combination) Italian turkey sausages (4 to 6 sausages)
1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 teaspoon caraway seeds
1 large bulb fennel, trimmed, quartered and thinly sliced, plus 1 tablespoon fronds for topping
1 Gala apple, cored and thinly sliced
1 pound sauerkraut, well drained
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper

Steps:

Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausages and cook, turning, until browned all over, 6 to 8 minutes. Add 1/4 cup water, cover and cook until the sausages are just cooked through, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a plate to cool, then slice into 2-inch pieces.
Reduce the heat under the skillet to medium; add the butter and caraway seeds and cook, stirring, until the butter is melted. Add the fennel and apple and cook, stirring, until slightly softened, about 3 minutes. Add the sauerkraut and sausage slices and cook, stirring, until the sauerkraut is warmed through, about 3 more minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Top with fennel fronds.
