Pierogi Skillet

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 10 min. Cook: 1-1/4 hours YIELD: 12 servings.
With sauerkraut, cabbage, onion and egg noodles, this dish has all the flavor of traditional pierogi but without all the work of making the dumplings. Just combine the ingredients in a skillet and let it simmer. I call it “lazy man’s pierogi.”

Ingredients

  • 1/2 pound sliced bacon, diced
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 1 can (27 ounces) sauerkraut, rinsed and squeezed dry
  • 1 small head cabbage, shredded
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 5 cups uncooked egg noodles
  • 6 tablespoons butter
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons salt

Directions

  • 1. In a large skillet or Dutch oven, cook the bacon until almost crisp. Add onion; cook and stir until bacon is crisp and onion is tender. Drain. Add the sauerkraut, cabbage and pepper; mix well. Cover and simmer for 45 minutes.
  • 2. Meanwhile, cook the noodles according to package directions; drain. Stir the noodles, butter and salt into cabbage mixture. Cover and simmer 30 minutes longer.
