Equipment

  • large skillet

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 cup onion, diced
  • 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon beef flavored Better Than Bouillon dissolved
  • ½ cup boiling water
  • ½ cup uncooked white rice
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon brown sugar
  • 1 can (14.5 ounce) tomato sauce
  • ¼ cup ketchup
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 6 cups cabbage, chopped from 1 small head, core removed
  • 1-2 tablespoons parsley, minced
  • sour cream for serving

Instructions
 

  • In a large, high-sided skillet, add oil over medium-high heat. Add beef, onion, garlic, salt, pepper, thyme, and paprika, then cook and crumble the beef until there is no longer any pink, about 5 to 7 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, add the Better Than Bouillon and ½ cup boiling water, whisking until dissolved.
  • Stir in Better Than Bouillon with water, rice, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, tomato sauce, ketchup, broth, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, and cabbage to the skillet and mix to combine.
  • Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then immediately reduce heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Cover and cook, stirring a couple of times, until rice is cooked and cabbage is tender, about 22 to 25 minutes.
  • Top with parsley. Ladle into individual bowls and pass sour cream to accompany.

Notes

For variation, substitute ground turkey for beef, add dill for extra flavor, top with cheese, or consider using different rice types.
