Fried Cabbage and Bacon

 

4 slices thick-cut bacon, chopped

1 small head green cabbage, cored and cut into about 1-inch pieces

1 yellow onion, chopped

2 tsp. kosher salt

1 tsp. celery seed

1/2 tsp. black pepper

1 T. apple cider vinegar

 

Place bacon in a medium Dutch oven over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp and rendered, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from heat. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate, leaving bacon drippings in the Dutch oven. Return the Dutch oven to medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring often, until softened, about 6 minutes. Add the cabbage, 2 T. water, salt, celery seed, and black pepper. Toss well to evenly coat the cabbage. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally until the cabbage is tender, 8 to 12 minutes.  Remove the cabbage from the heat and stir in the vinegar and bacon. Serve hot.
