Directions

Instructions Checklist
  • Heat oil in a large Dutch oven or other large heavy pot over medium-high heat. Add seasoning blend; cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and paprika; cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in broth, water, tomatoes, cabbage, potatoes, thyme and salt; bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low; cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the cabbage and potatoes are tender, about 25 minutes. Remove from heat and divide among 8 bowls; stir in 1 teaspoon lemon juice per bowl. Garnish with additional thyme, if desired, and serve with lemon wedges.

To make ahead

Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 2 months.

Tip

Look for "seasoning blend" with other frozen vegetables at the supermarket to save time. It usually consists of finely chopped onion, celery, bell pepper and parsley. For some recipes you can add it right from the freezer; here we suggest you thaw it first in a colander under cool running water and drain thoroughly. You can certainly sub chopped fresh veggies if you want; you'll need about 2 1/2 cups.
