Time 30m

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound kielbasa (pork or turkey), cut into 4 pieces
2 tablespoons whole-grain mustard
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 large white onion, cut into 6 wedges
1 pound frozen potato-and-cheddar pierogies (do not thaw)
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup roughly chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill to medium. Grill the kielbasa, turning, until marked, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a baking sheet or platter.
  • Meanwhile, whisk the mustard and vinegar in a large bowl. Slowly whisk in 2 tablespoons olive oil until smooth.
  • Toss the onion and pierogies with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill, covered, until the pierogies thaw and the onion begins to soften, about 5 minutes. Turn the pierogies and onion and continue to grill, covered, until the pierogies are cooked through and the onion is tender, 4 to 6 more minutes. Transfer to the baking sheet or platter.
  • Slice the kielbasa into pieces and add to the bowl with the mustard dressing. Roughly chop the onion and add to the bowl along with the pierogies and parsley. Season with salt and pepper and toss. Divide among shallow bowls.

LAZY PIEROGI

For this tasty pierogi casserole, sauerkraut, onion, mushrooms, and pasta are combined and baked in a rich, buttery sauce. If you are making this ahead and are going to reheat it in the oven you may have to add a little water. If cold, bake at 350 degrees for 1 1/2 to 2 hours.

KIELBASA WITH PIEROGIES & CARAMELIZED ONIONS



Kielbasa With Pierogies & Caramelized Onions image

A friend posted this recipe on Pinterest and being both a kielbasa and pierogies lover, I just had to try it. I find the mustard and vinegar sauce really makes this dish stand out from all the other similar ones I have tried. I also added a small head of raw broccoli, cut into small pieces. A very simple and inexpensive family meal. We served ours with a small side salad.
