Ingredients

1 onion, diced
5 medium-size potatoes cubbed
4 chicken sausages sliced
6 clove garlic, minced
2 green apples, peeled, cored, coarsely chopped
1/2 medium green cabbage, sliced
1 tbsp granulated garlic
1 tbsp granulated onion
1 tbsp basil
1/2 tsp black pepper
1 cup veggie bullion
3 cups chicken bullion
2 tbsp butter , ghee or olive oil
1 tsp salt
turkey bacon or regular bacon for serving
1 1/2 cup bubbies sauerkraut

Instructions

Prepare Ingredients: Wash the potatoes thoroughly, then cut them into large dice. Peel, core, and slice the green apples. Thinly slice the cabbage. Chop the onion and mince the garlic.
Brown Onion and Garlic: Heat a tablespoon of ghee or olive oil over medium heat in a medium-sized pot or Dutch oven . Add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion turns golden and fragrant.
Add Potatoes, Apples, and Cabbage: Add the diced potatoes, sliced apples, and thinly sliced cabbage to the pot with the onion and garlic. Stir in the caraway seeds and paprika, and crumble in the bouillon cube. Stir-fry the mixture for about 5 minutes to lightly cook the vegetables and coat them with the spices.
Add Stock and Simmer: Pour in the vegetable or chicken stock and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot with a lid, and simmer gently for about 40 minutes or until the potatoes are tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Prepare Chicken Sausage: While the stew is simmering, heat another tablespoon of ghee or olive oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add the chopped chicken sausages and stir-fry until they are browned and cooked through.
Combine Ingredients: Add the browned chicken sausages to the pot with the stew. Stir in the sauerkraut, ensuring it is evenly distributed. Cover the pot tightly with a lid and continue to cook for another 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Serve: Remove from heat once the stew is fully cooked and the flavors have melded together. Serve the stew hot, optionally garnished with crispy bacon on top. Enjoy your hearty and flavorful Polish Cabbage and Potato Stew!
