Pierogies:
- 1 pound frozen pierogies (any flavor)
Other Ingredients:
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 4 chicken sausages (any flavor, sliced into 1” coins)
- 1 small yellow onion (sliced into strips)
- 3 tablespoons butter
- Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
- Prepare the Pierogies: Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the frozen pierogies and cook for 4–5 minutes, or until they float to the surface.
- Cook the Sausages: While the pierogies cook, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced chicken sausages and sauté for 2–3 minutes, until browned and slightly crisp on the edges.
- Add the Onion: Stir in the sliced onion and cook for another 2–3 minutes, until the onions soften slightly.
- Combine and Brown: Once the pierogies are cooked, use a slotted spoon to transfer them directly to the skillet with the sausage and onions. Spread them out in the pan so one side of each pierogi touches the skillet’s surface.
- Add Butter and Finish Cooking: Add the butter in small pieces around the skillet. Cook for an additional 4–5 minutes, tossing occasionally, until the pierogies are lightly browned in spots.
- Serve: Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired, and serve warm.
