Heat a large skillet to medium heat, add the chopped bacon and cook until crisp. When crisp remove the bacon from the skillet with a slotted spoon and place on a paper towel lined plate.

Drain off all of the bacon grease except 1 tablespoon and set aside for later. 

Add the chopped onion to the bacon grease and sauté 7-10 minutes over medium heat until the onion caramelizes. 

Add 1 tablespoon of bacon grease back to the skillet, add the cabbage salt, pepper and paprika. 

Cook the cabbage for 10-15 minutes stirring occasionally until it has reduced and is tender enough for your liking. 

Add the chopped bacon and serve immediately.
