Ingredients

• Servings: 8
• 1 lb lamb chop (or chicken)
• mccormick grill mates poultry seasoning
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 red bell pepper (chopped)

• 2 sauté peppers and onion in lamb chop drippings on medium heat until tender (not browned).
• 3 cut cooled chops into 1/2 inch strips, add to peppers and onion; add tomatoes. cook until lamb chops are mostly cooked (not done, still tender) and add tomato sauce until bubbling.
• 4 start piling cabbage on top, cover and add more as pot will allow - until it is all used.
• 5 stir the bottom gently from the sides of the pot to prevent sticking (do not disturb cabbage too much).
• 6 as cabbage softens, slowly begin working the mixture upward from the bottom. when entirely blended, remove lid and continue cooking on medium heat until cabbage has softened as desired.
• 7 quick version: replace the onion, tomatoes and peppers with 2 (10 ounce) cans original rotel tomatoes.
