SKILLET PIEROGI WITH SAUSAGE AND BROCCOLI



Skillet Pierogi with Sausage and Broccoli image

Skipping the boiling water and cooking frozen pierogis in a hot skillet is an all-time favorite shortcut. Not only does it lessen the cooking time in this recipe, it gives the pierogi shell more time to get really crispy, which is a great contrast to the creamy filling.

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
12 ounces sweet Italian sausage, casings removed
1 pound frozen or refrigerated pierogi, preferably potato and cheese
1 small onion, halved and sliced root to tip
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 12-ounce bag broccoli florets, large florets halved or quartered
1 red, yellow or orange bell pepper, sliced
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook, breaking it up into small clumps with a spatula or wooden spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 8 minutes. Remove to a large plate, leaving the drippings in the pan. Add the pierogi to the pan and cook, turning, until browned and heated through, about 5 minutes. Remove to the plate with the sausage.
  • Add the onion, oregano and a big pinch each of salt and pepper to the skillet. Cook, stirring, until the onion is softened and just beginning to brown, about 3 minutes. Push to one side of the skillet; add 1 more tablespoon olive oil and the broccoli to the open side. Season the broccoli with salt and let cook, undisturbed, until it starts to brown in spots, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir the broccoli into the onion and cook until the broccoli is bright green with crisp-tender stems, 5 minutes.
  • Add the bell pepper to the skillet and cook until just softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Return the sausage and pierogi to the skillet and add the garlic and remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Cook, tossing, until well combined. Season with salt and pepper and stir in 2 tablespoons Parmesan.
  • Divide the pierogi and vegetables among plates or shallow bowls. Sprinkle with the remaining 2 tablespoons Parmesan.

20-MINUTE CRISPY PIEROGIES WITH BROCCOLI AND SAUSAGE



20-Minute Crispy Pierogies with Broccoli and Sausage image

This is a kid-friendly twist on the classic Italian combination of broccoli rabe and sausage. We discovered that cooking mini pierogies pot-sticker style in a hot skillet saved time (no waiting for water to boil) and left them both crispy and tender.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 tablespoons olive oil
One 12.84-ounce box frozen mini potato-cheese pierogies
1/2 pound sweet Italian sausage (about 3 links)
2 cloves garlic, smashed and roughly chopped
Pinch red pepper flakes
1 pound frozen broccoli spears, thawed (split any spears that are very large)
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan, plus more for serving

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Arrange the pierogies snugly flat-side down in the skillet (there may be some overlapping). Cook until the bottoms just begin to brown, about 3 minutes. Pour in 1/2 cup of water and simmer until the pierogi dough is tender and the water has completely evaporated, 4 to 5 minutes. Lower the heat to medium and continue cooking until the bottoms are golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes more; watch carefully as they can go from golden to burnt quickly. Remove from the heat.
  • While the pierogies cook, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When the oil is shimmering, squeeze the sausage out of the casings into the skillet. Cook the sausage, stirring frequently and breaking it up into bite-size pieces, until browned, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the garlic and pepper flakes and stir until the garlic begins to brown, about 30 seconds. Stir in the broccoli. Stir in the broth, scraping the bottom of the pan to release any browned bits. Sprinkle with the Parmesan. Reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, until the liquid is reduced by half and the broccoli is tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat.
  • Transfer the pierogies to a large, shallow serving dish and top with the sausage and broccoli mixture. Toss everything to combine and sprinkle with extra Parmesan.
