Crispy Pierogies With Broccoli And Sausage Recipes

SHEET PAN PEROGIES AND SAUSAGE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees and line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Add perogies and onion a bowl and drizzle with oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Turn to coat and spread on pan.
• Slice smoked sausages and add to the pan around the perogies and onions (we want the sausages evenly spread through the pan as they will render fat and flavor that will add to the perogies). Spread everything into a single layer as much as possible.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes, turning perogies once half way through, until perogies are puffed and tender and onions are golden.
• Serve as desired (my family loves it with sour cream!)

20-MINUTE CRISPY PIEROGIES WITH BROCCOLI AND SAUSAGE

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.

SKILLET PIEROGI WITH SAUSAGE AND BROCCOLI

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.

PIEROGIES

Steps:

• Place the sour cream in a large bowl, and mix in flour to make a dough. Roll the dough out on a floured surface about 1/16 inch thick, and cut rounds about 3 1/2 inches across using a cookie cutter or a glass. Re-roll the unused dough to make more rounds, up to 4 times -- after that, it gets hard to work with.
• Place about 1 teaspoon of mashed potatoes in the center of each dough round, fold over into a half-moon shape, and press and seal the edges with a fork. Set the filled pierogies aside under a towel to prevent drying.
• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat, and cook and stir the onions until translucent, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the cooked onions and set aside, leaving butter in the skillet.
• Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil, and carefully drop a few filled pierogies at a time into the boiling water. After they float to the surface, allow them to gently boil for about 4 minutes.
• Re-heat the butter in the skillet over medium heat. Gently scoop the pierogies out of the water (they break easily) and place them in the skillet to brown on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Place the fried pierogies on a buttered baking sheet, sprinkle them with the cooked onions, and keep warm in the oven on low setting until served.
