Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 5 tablespoons butter
- 1 pound Kielbasa, thinly sliced
- 25 mini Pierogies
- 1 medium onion, coarsely chopped
Instructions
- Cook Pierogies: Begin by boiling water and adding the mini pierogies. Once the water returns to a boil, cook for an additional 3 minutes until pierogies are tender. Drain them well and set aside.
- Brown Kielbasa: Heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the thinly sliced kielbasa and cook, turning often, until browned evenly and slightly crispy on the edges. Remove the kielbasa from the skillet and set aside.
- Sauté Onions: In the same skillet, add the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter. Add the coarsely chopped onion and sauté over medium heat until the onions become tender and translucent, about 4 to 5 minutes.
- Combine and Warm: Return the cooked pierogies and browned kielbasa to the skillet with the sautéed onions. Toss everything together thoroughly so that all pieces are coated with butter and evenly heated through. Serve warm and enjoy your skillet roast!
Notes
- You can substitute regular pierogies with cheese, potato, or meat-filled varieties according to your preference.
- For extra flavor, add a pinch of garlic powder or smoked paprika when sautéing the onions.
- This dish pairs well with a dollop of sour cream or a simple green salad on the side.
- If preferred, kielbasa can be grilled or oven-roasted before adding to the skillet for a smoky touch.
