IRISH BACON AND CABBAGE


It's coming..It's coming,.....Saint Patty's Day and all the greatness of an Irish "boiled" dinner. Bring it up a notch with this great recipe for bacon-cabbage.
Ingredients:
3 thick slices of bacon diced
1 head of cabbage cored and wedged
3 tbl unsalted butter melted
2 tsp nutmeg
2 cups water
1/2 cup red wine vinegar
salt
pepper
Preheat broiler
Place cabbage in a large pot. Add water and bring to a boil. Simmer over low heat until tender about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, cook bacon in a saute pan, drain and set aside. Drain the cabbage and place in a baking dish. Drizzle with the melted butter and sprinkle with bacon and nutmeg. Broil until the top layer of the cabbage is lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Season with vinegar, salt and pepper.
LUCK O' THE IRISH!
ENJOY!
