ingredients
 

I served this meal with fresh cooked beets. It was a perfect combo and colorful.

Steps:

  1. You will be using a covered skillet and a large bowl to put all your vegetables in as you prep everything. Start by cutting and thickly slicing all the vegetables and put them in the bowl.

  3. I used a ham steak. Using a sharp knife, cut the ham in 1/2 inch slices, then cut the slices in 3.

  5. When you have everything prepared, put 2 Tbls of olive oil and 2 Tbls of butter in the skillet. Using butter and olive oil together keeps the oil from burning so quickly ( old mom's hint).

  7. Start cooking the vegetables that take the longest to cook first; carrots, celery, some of the harder pieces of cabbage, stir these into the oil, tossing around the pan. After a few minutes, start adding and stirring in handfuls of the bowl of vegetables, keep tossing.

  9. Now is when you need to create some steam to cook the vegetables faster. Add a little bit at a time of the chicken broth. It should steam right up! Cover for 5 minutes and stir. Cover again for 5 minutes and stir. Do this until you have semi-cooked vegetables. You don't want them soggy. And you don't want them too hard Test a few pieces.
