How to Make Hot Bacon Cabbage Slaw
- Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crispy. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon and set aside, reserving bacon grease in the pan.
- Add sliced onion to the skillet with the bacon grease and saute for 3-5 minutes, until softened.
- While the onion is sauteing, combine the shredded cabbage and carrots in a large bowl. Set aside.
- In a small bowl, whisk together apple cider vinegar, sugar, salt, and Dijon mustard until sugar is dissolved.
- Pour the dressing over the sauteed onions in the skillet and stir until the sugar dissolves completely.
- Add the cabbage and carrot mixture to the skillet. Stir to coat everything evenly with the dressing.
- Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the cabbage is wilted but still slightly crunchy.
- Stir in the cooked bacon pieces and peanuts (if using).
- Serve immediately or chill for later. For a heartier main dish, double the bacon and carrots.
