Instant Pot Cabbage

Ingredients

• 5 cups diced cabbage (about 1/2 large head of cabbage)
• 1/2 pound bacon (or turkey bacon)
• 1 onion
• 1/2 cup chicken broth (or vegetable broth)
• 3 cloves garlic
• black pepper (to taste, optional)
• sea salt (to taste, optional)

Instructions

1. 1

   Remove the outer leaves and core from the cabbage. Roughly chop into 1 inch pieces. Dice the onion. Mince the garlic. Dice the bacon into bite sized pieces.

2. 2

   Set the Instant Pot to sauté mode. Add the bacon and stir occasionally until the bacon is crispy. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the bacon to a plate lined with paper towels. Do not pour out the bacon grease.

3. 3

   Add the cabbage, onion, and garlic to the Instant Pot. Sauté for 5 minutes, stirring often. Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth. Use a wooden spoon to scrape up the brown bits from the bottom of the pan.

4. 4

   Turn the IP off. Place the lid on and close the pressure valve (Sealing). Manually set it to cook at High Pressure for 1 minute. Once the timer goes off, turn or press the steam release valve to allow to steam to release (Quick Pressure Release/QPR).

5. 5

   Carefully open the lid. Transfer the cabbage to a bowl. Taste and season with salt and pepper if desired. Top with the bacon and gently toss together just before serving.
