Cabbage And Piggies Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add pierogies and boil for 5-7 minutes. Pierogies should float to the surface when they are done, but that's not always true with today's frozen products - some float right away or within a minute or two. Ignore that event and boil for at least 4-5 minutes to fully cook the filling.
• Remove pierogies with a slotted spoon and drain well.
• While the water is heating for the pierogies, melt butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add onion and saute until it softens, 3 - 5 minutes.
• Add cabbage and saute mixture 5 more minutes. Season generously with salt and pepper.
• Stir in sliced kielbasa and continue to cook until cabbage is done and kielbasa flavors have melded with the mixture.
• Reduce temperature to warm. Place cooked pierogies atop cabbage and season with pepper.
• Spoon some of the cabbage mixture over the pierogies to help them reheat. The dish is ready when the pierogies are heated through. Serve warm.
