Equipment

  • Large skillet

Ingredients

  • 1 pound lean ground beef
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ head green cabbage chopped
  • 1 large yellow onion chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 15 ounces canned diced tomatoes
  • 8 ounces tomato sauce
  • 3 tablespoons sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • ¼ teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
  • 2 green onions sliced

Instructions

  • Set a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the ground beef. Break the meat into small crumbles and cook until nicely browned. Then remove the browned hamburger with a slotted spoon and set aside. Discard any excess grease.
  • Reduce the heat to medium, then add the olive oil along with chopped onion and cabbage. Saute until the onion and cabbage is tender and beginning to brown. Then add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
  • Return the beef to the skillet along with diced tomatoes. Cook off until the liquid has almost completely evaporated, then add the tomato sauce, sour cream, brown sugar, paprika, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 1-2 minutes to thicken, then stir in the chopped green onions, and serve.
