Instructions

Step 1: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook for 5 minutes until softened and golden, then set aside.
Step 2: Add the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil to the skillet. Place the pork sausages in the skillet and cook for 8 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides.
Step 3: Remove the sausages and set aside. Add the shredded cabbage, chicken broth, Dijon mustard, honey, and caraway seeds to the skillet. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer, then cover and cook for 15 minutes until the cabbage is tender.
Step 4: Return the sausages to the skillet, nestling them into the cabbage mixture. Cover and cook for an additional 5 minutes to heat through.
Step 5: Season with salt and pepper to taste.
