Creamy Cabbage Chicken Skillet for an Easy Fall Meal


  • Total Time: 23 minute
  • Diet: Low-Carb, Gluten-Free

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs chicken breast, cut into bite-sized cubes
  • 1 medium head of green cabbage, shredded or thinly sliced
  • 1 large onion, finely diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup halal chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large deep skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Season the chicken cubes with salt, pepper, and the smoked paprika.
  3. Add the chicken to the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes until browned and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pan and set it aside on a plate.
  4. In the same skillet, add the diced onion. Sauté for 3 minutes until translucent.
  5. Add the shredded cabbage to the pan. Cook for 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage is soft and reduced in volume.
  6. Stir in the minced garlic and dried thyme. Cook for just 1 minute until fragrant.
  7. Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream. Use a wooden spoon to scrape up any brown bits from the bottom of the pan.
  8. Bring the liquid to a gentle simmer. Let it bubble for 3-4 minutes to thicken slightly.
  9. Return the cooked chicken and any juices from the plate back into the skillet.
  10. Toss everything together until the chicken is heated through and well-coated in the sauce.
  11. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
