Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Chop the onion into small pieces. Cut the smoked Polish sausage into bite-sized pieces. Chop the bacon into small strips.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Cook the Bacon

    In a large skillet over medium heat, add the chopped bacon. Cook until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the bacon, leaving the rendered fat in the skillet.

  2. 3

    Sauté the Onion

    In the same skillet with the bacon fat, add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

  3. 4

    Add the Sausage

    Add the cut smoked Polish sausage to the skillet and cook until browned, about 5-6 minutes.

  4. 5

    Incorporate the Sauerkraut

    Stir in the sauerkraut, caraway seeds, garlic powder, black pepper, and apple cider vinegar. Mix well.

  5. 6

    Simmer

    Cover the skillet and let the mixture simmer on low heat for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Adjust seasoning with salt as needed.

Serving

  1. 7

    Serve the Dish

    Once cooked, sprinkle the crispy bacon on top of the Kielbasa and Kapusta. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
