Cabbage Patch Stew (Diabetic)

Ingredients:

1 tablespoon corn oil
3 tablespoons commercial bacon bits
1 teaspoon (or 1 clove) minced garlic
1 medium onion, chopped
1 tablespoon flour
3 cans (14.5 ounces each) fat-free, reduced-sodium chicken broth
1/2 medium head cabbage, shredded
1 cup diced carrots
1/2 cup finely chopped celery
2 teaspoons dried parsley
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/2 cup frozen green peas
1/2 cup reduced-fat sour cream

Method:

Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add bacon bits, garlic, and onion and cook, stirring frequently, until onion is tender (about 3–4 minutes). Add a few drops of water if the mixture begins to stick. Stir in flour, then add chicken broth and bring to a boil. Stir in cabbage, carrots, celery, parsley, salt, and red pepper flakes. Return to a boil, then cover, reduce heat to low-medium, and simmer for 20 minutes.
Stir in frozen peas and sour cream, heat through, and serve right away.
