Description

A delicious creamy chicken and cabbage dish that is hearty and satisfying.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb (450g) boneless skinless chicken thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1/2 head (approx 450g) green cabbage, chopped
  • 1 medium onion, sliced
  • 2 tbsp (30ml) olive oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp (5g) paprika
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) heavy cream
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp (10g) fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken pieces generously with salt, pepper, and paprika. Cook until nicely browned on all sides, then remove from the skillet and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, add the sliced onion and chopped cabbage. Sauté for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onion softens and the cabbage wilts and becomes tender-crisp.
  3. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant.
  4. Pour in the chicken broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan to deglaze and build flavor.
  5. Stir in the heavy cream, then return the browned chicken to the skillet, nestling it into the sauce and vegetables.
  6. Simmer for about 5 minutes, or until the sauce thickens slightly and the chicken is fully cooked (internal temperature 165°F / 74°C).
  7. Taste and adjust salt and pepper as needed.
  8. Garnish generously with fresh chopped parsley and serve warm.
