Salty Pork, crunchy Cabbage, sweet Onion and just the right amount of heat!
This is the perfect hearty dish for a cold winter night!
I saw a version of this recipe a while back on Diners, Drive Ins, and Dives on Food Network. I thought it sounded like an interesting combination but quickly forgot about it. Then the other night I was searching through my refrigerator and pantry, trying to put together a quick meal for my husband and I and after finding a head of cabbage and a Cajun pork steak in my empty fridge (pretty much all we had in the fridge when we got back from Christmas vacation besides some condiments!) along with some egg noodles and an onion in my pantry, I decided why not give cabbage and noodles a try!
….Ya know what? It was dang good!

Hi Nicole,
I came across your website after searching for a dinner recipe with the ingredients I had on hand. This was AMAZING. We used leftover roasted pork belly for the meat, and I used penne pasta (no egg noodles) but I am adding this to our family's regular roster for great cold weather meals. Thank you!

Awesome! So glad you loved this tasty dinner as much as I did!
