5 from 21 reviews

A hearty and easy-to-make skillet dish featuring classic pierogies, savory chicken sausages, and sweet caramelized onions, all cooked in a flavorful buttery sauce. Perfect for a quick weeknight dinner or a cozy weekend meal.

Ingredients

Scale

Pierogies:

  • 1 pound frozen pierogies (any flavor)

Chicken Sausages:

  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 4 chicken sausages (any flavor, sliced into 1” coins)

Onion:

  • 1 small yellow onion (sliced into strips)
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Pierogies: Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the frozen pierogies and cook for 4–5 minutes, or until they float to the surface.
  2. Cook the Sausages: While the pierogies cook, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced chicken sausages and sauté for 2–3 minutes, until browned and slightly crisp on the edges.
  3. Add the Onion: Stir in the sliced onion and cook for another 2–3 minutes, until the onions soften slightly.
  4. Combine and Brown: Once the pierogies are cooked, use a slotted spoon to transfer them directly to the skillet with the sausage and onions. Spread them out in the pan so one side of each pierogi touches the skillet’s surface.
  5. Add Butter and Finish Cooking: Add the butter in small pieces around the skillet. Cook for an additional 4–5 minutes, tossing occasionally, until the pierogies are lightly browned in spots.
  6. Serve: Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired, and serve warm.
