Equipment

Slow-cooker 4-5 Quart size
Cutting board
Measuring spoons

Ingredients
  

  • 1 small head of green cabbage washed and cut
  • 1 small onion, chopped 1 cup of chopped onion
  • 4 cups unsalted chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoon thyme dried
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1.5 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 4 bay leaves dried

Instructions
 

  • Add broth, onion and all the seasonings to the slow cooker then stir together.
  • Add cabbage to completely to the top of the slow cooker.
  • Cook on HIGH heat.

At the 3 hour mark:

  • Depending on your preference for level of tenderness, you can start to check cabbage at the 3 hour mark. Between 3 hours and 30 minutes up to 4 hours is tender.
  • Give it a good stir before serving and enjoy!

Notes

  • Pairs well with chicken and rice 
  • After you've added the broth, onion and seasonings fill the slow cooker to the top with cabbage. The lid should fit nicely.
    Although I will say, if there is a small amount of cabbage left I stuff it on top and still place the lid on. It may not fit nicely, but eventually the cabbage cooks down anyway.
  • Tip: You can also cook these on low for 7-8 hours.
  • The amount of salt used can be adjusted based on your preferences and dietary needs. I wouldn't suggest using more than 1 teaspoon of salt for the recipe.
