Blue Ribbon Recipe

This potatoes, cabbage, and bacon recipe is easy to prepare any night of the week. Big on flavor, it's a great side dish for roast chicken, pork chops, baked chicken breasts, and more. We love the savory and hearty flavors and the kick of spice from red pepper flakes. Bacon adds a nice smoky flavor to the side dish.

How To Make potatoes, cabbage, and bacon

Step 1

Put sliced potatoes into a glass pie plate. Cover with plastic wrap and microwave for 4-5 minutes or until potatoes are cooked. Be careful when removing the plastic wrap; very hot steam inside. Then put aside for a moment.

Step 2

In a large fry pan, fry bacon pieces in 2 Tbsp of olive oil until just cooked (not crispy).
Step 3

Remove bacon. Saute onion and cabbage in the drippings. Add salt, pepper, and optional red pepper.
Step 4

Cover the pan for a few minutes to speed up the cooking of the cabbage.
Step 5

Add potatoes and continually stir. Turn over the mixture occasionally so it can equally brown slightly.
Step 6

Add cooked bacon pieces and mix. Then enjoy!
