Instructions

Heat a large deep skillet over medium high heat. Add the ground beef and let it cook for 3 to 4 minutes without stirring to form a nice crust on one side. Break it up with a spoon, continue cooking until no pink remains. Drain any fat.

Add the onion and garlic and cook for 3 minutes. Add the broth, scraping up any browned bits on the bottom of the pan. Add the cabbage, bell peppers, diced tomatoes with chiles, tomato paste, Italian seasoning, paprika, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper.

Stir, cover, and simmer for 25 to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until the cabbage is tender.

Season with additional salt and pepper to taste and rest for 5 minutes.

Serve over rice or pasta if desired.
