Ingredients
  

Cooking Ingredients
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 1 pound kielbasa sausage, cut into 2-inch chunks
  • ½ large onion, diced
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • ½ pound Yukon Gold potatoes, diced ½ inch
  • 1 pound sauerkraut, rinsed and drained
  • 1 teaspoon caraway seed optional
  • ¼ to ½ cup chicken stock
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Equipment

Method
 

Cooking Instructions
  1. Cut the kielbasa sausage into 2-inch chunks.
  2. Place the sauerkraut in a large mesh strainer and rinse with cool water. Set aside to drain.
  3. Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add 2 teaspoons of olive oil. Once hot, add the kielbasa chunks and sear for about 5 minutes until golden.
  4. Remove the sausage and set aside. In the same skillet, add the diced onion, minced garlic, and diced potatoes. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, for 8 to 10 minutes until the onions brown slightly and the potatoes tender.
  5. Stir in the drained sauerkraut, caraway seed if using, and ¼ cup chicken stock. Mix well.
  6. Return the seared kielbasa to the skillet. Cover and cook for another 5 to 6 minutes.
  7. If the mixture seems dry, add the remaining chicken stock. Taste and season with salt and pepper as needed before serving.
