Bavarian Bratwurst Supper
TOTAL TIME: Prep: 10 min. Cook: 50 min.
YIELD: 4 servings.
My family enjoys the flavors of hot German potato salad and bratwurst, especially during the cooler months. This original skillet recipe is truly a one-dish meal, combining meat, potatoes, apple and sauerkraut. For a lower-fat version, try using turkey bratwurst and turkey bacon.

-
4 bacon strips, diced
-
4 fresh bratwurst links, cut into 2-inch pieces

1 medium tart apple, chopped

1 medium onion, chopped

1/2 cup cider vinegar

3 tablespoons brown sugar

Directions

1.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook bacon until crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon to paper towels. In the drippings, cook and stir bratwurst for 10-12 minutes or until a thermometer reads 160°. Remove with a slotted spoon. Drain, reserving 2 tablespoons of drippings. Saute apple and onion in drippings until lightly browned.
