Chicken and Cabbage Simmered in Tomato Sauce

I had a lot of cabbage that I'd bought or gotten from people to use up so I came up with this recipe. Since then it's become a family favorite.
Because you dust the chicken with flour before browning and then simmering it the umami is held inside and the meat won't fall apart. By sprinkling it with some sake for cooking, the gaminess of the chicken is gone and it becomes very tender. Adjust the amount of salt and water depending on how much cabbage you use. I use about 1/2 a tomato can of water. Recipe by Makichimu

You can still wrap them up if you tear one by stacking up 2 leaves.The meat that you stuff inside might feel loose, but you roll it up in cabbage, so it's alright!The cabbage rolls remain juicy even the next day .
