Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Allow the oil to shimmer, indicating it's hot enough for cooking.
- Add the sliced andouille sausage to the hot skillet, spreading it in a single layer. Sear for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sausage is browned and crispy on the edges.
- Reduce the heat to medium and add 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter to the skillet, letting it melt completely. Toss in the diced yellow onion and sauté for about 4 minutes.
- Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute, until fragrant.
- Add the shredded green cabbage to the skillet, along with the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter, Cajun seasoning, and crushed red pepper flakes. Toss everything together and sauté for 7-9 minutes.
- Pour in 1 cup of heavy whipping cream, stirring to combine. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat, allowing it to bubble softly for about 2-3 minutes.
- Gradually add ½ cup of freshly grated Parmesan cheese into the sauce, stirring continuously until melted and the sauce thickens.
- Return the seared sausage to the skillet, stirring everything to combine well, and adjust seasoning with salt and black pepper to taste.
- Sprinkle freshly chopped parsley on top for a pop of color and freshness. Serve warm in shallow bowls.

Notes
For the best texture, cook the cabbage just until tender-crisp and use fresh ingredients for maximum flavor.
