How to Make Chicken And Cabbage Casserole

  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. In a zip-top plastic bag, combine 1/4 cup all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon seasoned salt.
  3. Add 4 chicken drumsticks (about 1.5 lbs) to the bag, two at a time.
  4. Seal the bag and shake well to coat the chicken evenly.
  5. Add the coated chicken to the skillet and cook, turning occasionally, until browned on all sides (about 8-10 minutes).
  6. Transfer the browned chicken to a lightly oiled 9x13 inch baking dish.
  7. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  8. Add 1 medium chopped onion, 1 green bell pepper (chopped), and 1 cup chopped carrots to the skillet.
  9. Cook until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes.
  10. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup ketchup, 1 (14.5 ounce) can of undrained diced tomatoes, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  11. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
  12. Add 4 cups shredded green cabbage to the skillet along with the vegetable and tomato sauce. Stir to combine.
  13. Pour the cabbage mixture over the chicken in the baking dish.
  14. Cover the dish with foil.
  15. Bake for 45 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the cabbage is tender.
  16. Remove the foil.
  17. Sprinkle 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese over the chicken.
  18. Bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
