Ingredients
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 small onion, coarsely chopped
4 medium potatoes, peeled and sliced 1/4 inch thick
1 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken stock
2 cups green cabbage, shredded
1 cup Swiss cheese, shredded
1/4 cup chopped nuts
Directions
Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm water before beginning.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Add the coarsely chopped onion to the hot oil and cook, stirring frequently, until the edges turn golden brown and the onion softens, about 5-7 minutes.
Add the sliced potatoes and the low-sodium chicken stock to the skillet, stirring gently to combine.
Cover the skillet tightly with a lid, reduce the heat to low, and simmer until the potatoes are nearly tender when pierced with a fork, about 15-20 minutes.
Stir in the shredded green cabbage, replace the cover, and continue simmering over low heat for an additional 5 minutes.
Remove the lid and distribute the shredded Swiss cheese evenly over the top of the casserole. Sprinkle the chopped nuts over the cheese.
Allow the casserole to stand uncovered just until the cheese has completely melted, about 2 minutes. Serve immediately while hot.
Comments
This is a solid weeknight dish with ingredients stocked at every Charlotte chain—potatoes, cabbage, onion, and cheese are commodity items, and chicken stock at Walmart or Kroger runs under a dollar. The real time is closer to 65 minutes once you account for dicing the potato and cabbage, which the 50-minute window doesn't honestly reflect. It reheats decently in a skillet, serves five generously, and needs only occasional stirring, making it genuinely family-friendly; the main drawback is the vague "nuts" component, which adds cost and texture appeal but feels incomplete as written.
