1 Tablespoon Vegetable Oil
1 Small Yellow Onion, Diced
2 cups Thinly Sliced Cabbage (I Used Bagged Coleslaw Mix Without The Dressing)
2 Carrots, Peeled And Thinly Sliced
1 stalk Celery, Thinly Sliced
1 clove Garlic, Minced
1 teaspoon Dried Rosemary
Freshly Ground Black Pepper
⅓ cups Dry White Wine
1 cup Dried Lentils
1- 1/2 cup Chicken Broth
8 ounces, weight Polish Kielbasa, Sliced Into Rounds

1
Heat skillet over medium-high heat and add vegetable oil.
2
When oil is hot, add onion and cook until it begins to soften, about 1 minute.
3
Add cabbage, carrot, celery, garlic, rosemary, and a few grinds of pepper.
4
Cook until vegetables begin to soften, about 3 minutes.
5
Pour in wine and cook, stirring, until it has almost cooked away.
6
Add lentils, chicken broth, and kielbasa, and stir.
7
Bring to a simmer.
8
Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer gently until lentils are tender, about 25 minutes.
9
Add more broth and cook longer if lentils are still hard.
10
Disclaimer: Even after half a day in the fridge, your leftovers (particularly cabbage) will begin to turn a darker color.
11
I am not 100% sure what causes this, though my best guess is oxidation.
12
However, I am 100% certain that will still be delicious and safe to eat (just dont leave it in fridge for longer than a few daysuse common sense).
