After cutting off the root of the cabbage, remove the first 2 - 3 layers of the cabbage before cutting it into ¼s. Then remove the layer by layer, and add individual leaves to a bowl of salt water to soak for up to 15 minutes, to rid them of any pesticides and debris. Then pat dry with a few pieces of paper towel and set aside.
In your deep skillet, melt the butter on medium-high heat. Once melted, add the Canadian bacon and onions, stir to cook for about 3 - 5 minutes. There will be no grease, that's why the butter was added (and flavor, of course).
Now's the time to add the chopped cabbage, pepper, oregano, paprika, and Dash Original seasoning, and stir. Continue stirring until cabbage is tender yet still has bite, and all ingredients are combined well; about 10 minutes.
Add salt, reduce the heat to medium-low, and cook the cabbage for 3 - 4 minutes with the lid on, until your preferred tenderness is reached.
Serve hot and enjoy!

Once fully cooled, it's best to:

Refrigerate: Fried cabbage can be stored in an airtight container for up to a week.
