Pierogies With Mushroom Sauce Recipes

PIEROGIE AND MUSHROOM CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Spray the bottom and sides of a lasagna-size casserole dish with cooking spray.
• Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer bacon to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Cook and stir onion in hot bacon grease until golden, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer onion to bacon and drain bacon grease from the skillet.
• Melt butter in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Saute mushrooms in hot butter until golden and moisture evaporates, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Cover the bottom of the prepared casserole dish with a single layer of frozen pierogies and spread 1 can condensed cream of mushroom soup on top. Layer bacon, onions, and mushrooms over the top. Spread remaining pierogies over mushrooms, cover with remaining cream of mushroom soup, and top with Cheddar cheese. Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes. Remove aluminum foil and continue baking until casserole is golden and cheese is bubbling, 10 to 15 minutes.

MUSHROOM PIEROGI

Steps:

• Remove stems from shiitake mushrooms, and trim stems of white and cremini mushrooms. Place mushrooms in a food processor, and pulse about eight times, until finely chopped. Set aside.
• In a medium saute pan, melt butter and oil over low heat; add shallots. Cook, covered, until softened, about 2 minutes. Add mushrooms, lemon juice, salt, and pepper, and mix well. Raise heat to medium, and cook, stirring occasionally, until mixture is nearly dry, about 8 to 10 minutes. Add cream, thyme, and parsley, and cook about 1 minute. Transfer to a medium bowl.
• To form dumplings, place a heaping teaspoon of the filling toward the front of a circle of pierogi dough. Moisten the edges of the dough with water, and fold in half around filling to form a semicircle, firmly pinching the edges closed. Set aside on a lightly floured baking sheet. Continue to fill and form pierogi, keeping them covered with plastic wrap, until all the dough has been used.
• Meanwhile, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, and add half the pierogi. Boil gently until they float to the surface, about 2 minutes, and continue cooking for another 3 to 4 minutes. Drain, and repeat with remaining pierogi. Serve immediately.

PIEROGIES WITH MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Boil the pierogies in salted water, according to package instructions.
• Meanwhile, add the olive oil to a non-stick skillet and place over medium heat.
• Cook the onion for a couple minutes, then add the garlic (so it doesn't burn). Stir and let cook for 1 more minute.
• Add mushrooms and season with salt and pepper.
• Continue cooking the mixture until the onions are translucent and the mushrooms are cooked. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
• In the same skillet, add the butter and pierogies (drained).
• Flip over the pierogies so they brown on both sides, then add the mushrooms back into the pan.
• Stir to combine everything, adjust the seasonings as needed, and remove from the heat.
• Serve warm. Can be served with sour cream if desired.

PIEROGIES WITH CREAMY MUSHROOM AND SHERRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
• Add the mushrooms, onion, salt and pepper to taste.
• Cook stirring occasionally until the mushrooms and onion are tender and lightly browned, about 4 minutes.
• Stir in sherry and cook until evaporated.
• Sprinkle in flour and stir to combine.
• Stir in milk, broth, and pierogies; bring to a boil.
• Remove from heat and stir in sour cream.
