Ingredients

  1. 8 ounces thick-cut bacon
  2. One 2-pound head red cabbage, sliced thinly (about 12 cups)
  3. 1/4 cup apple juice
  4. 1 tablespoon honey
  5. 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  6. 1 Gala apple, thinly sliced
  7. Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  8. 4 scallions, finely chopped

Instructions

  1. Spread the bacon out in a large nonstick saute pan. Place over medium-high heat and cook until crispy, about 6 minutes per side. Remove the bacon and place on a paper towel-lined plate, leaving the fat in the pan. Once cool to the touch, crumble the bacon into bite-sized pieces.
  2. Reduce the heat to medium and add the cabbage to the pan. Cook, stirring frequently, until slightly wilted, about 4 minutes. Pour the apple juice, honey and vinegar around the sides of the pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the liquid has cooked off, 2 to 3 minutes more. Add the apples and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon salt and 3/4 teaspoon black pepper. Toss to combine. Turn off the heat and stir in the scallions and crumbled bacon.
  3. Transfer to a serving platter and serve warm.
