Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 5 tablespoons butter
- 1 pound kielbasa, thinly sliced
- 25 mini pierogies
- 1 medium onion, coarsely chopped
Instructions
- Boil Pierogies: Cook the mini pierogies according to package instructions by adding them to boiling water and letting them boil for 3 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- Brown Kielbasa: Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced kielbasa and cook, turning often, until it is well browned and caramelized. Remove the kielbasa from the skillet and set aside.
- Sauté Onions: In the same skillet, melt the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter. Add the coarsely chopped onion and sauté over medium heat until the onions become tender and translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Combine and Heat Through: Return the cooked pierogies and browned kielbasa to the skillet with the sautéed onions. Gently stir to coat everything evenly with the melted butter and heat until warmed through, about 2-3 minutes.
- Serve: Serve the pierogies, kielbasa, and onions warm as a comforting and filling meal. Enjoy!
Notes
- You can add additional seasonings like garlic powder, paprika, or black pepper for extra flavor.
- For a crispier texture, you can brown the boiled pierogies in the skillet before adding the kielbasa back.
- Use smoked kielbasa for a richer, smokier flavor profile.
- This dish pairs well with a simple green salad or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
