Melt the butter in the pan. Add the onion and cook for 5 minutes or until softened.

Notes

I typically use kielbasa as it's flavorful and readily available. You can use turkey or beef kielbasa, either will work just fine.
Make sure to wash and dry your cabbage before cooking it.
Chop the cabbage pieces to about the same size as your sausage slices.
