1
In a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat, brown the ground beef while breaking it up with a spatula.

Add the finely chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet when the beef is halfway cooked, stirring frequently to ensure even cooking.

Once the beef is fully cooked and the onion is soft, drain any excess fat from the pan.

Add the chopped cabbage, marinara sauce, water, salt, black pepper, dried oregano, paprika, and red pepper flakes if using to the skillet, and stir until the cabbage is well-coated with the sauce.
5
Cover and let the mixture simmer on low-medium heat for 20-25 minutes or until the cabbage is tender, stirring occasionally.
6
Taste the dish and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Serve hot with a side of rice or cauliflower rice for a low-carb option.
