Equipment

large skillet

Ingredients

2 teaspoons avocado oil or extra virgin olive oil
1 piece yellow onion, thinly sliced
1 pound ground beef (grass-fed 90/10 preferred) (16 ounces)
12 ounces shredded cabbage mix (or about 4 cups of shredded cabbage)
3 tablespoons sauerkraut plus an extra tablespoon of the brine
2 tablespoons tamari or low-sodium soy sauce
¼ teaspoon fine-grain sea salt
5-6 grinds freshly cracked black pepper
1-2 cloves fresh garlic, grated optional

Instructions

Thinly slice the onion on a mandoline or with a sharp knife—heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté the thinly sliced onions until softened, about 4–5 minutes. Push the onions to the side or remove them from the pan to reserve.
Increase the heat to medium-high and add the ground beef. Sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt and some freshly ground black pepper, and let it sear for 1–2 minutes without stirring. Break it up with a wooden spoon and cook until fully browned, about 7–10 minutes. Add the onions back and stir to combine.
Add the shredded cabbage, sauerkraut with brine, tamari, and black pepper. Stir gently to combine.
Lower the heat to medium and let the cabbage cook down, stirring occasionally, for 10–15 minutes, depending on your texture preference. Adjust the seasoning to taste and serve warm.

Notes

Store leftovers in airtight containers in the fridge for up to 3 days.
