Why You’ll Love This Smoked Sausage and Pierogi Recipe
- It’s such a simple meal to make. Once you’ve gathered your ingredients and have placed them on the sheet pan, you’re pretty much done making the meal and can leave it cooking in the oven until it’s ready!
- The sausage pairs perfectly with the cabbage and pierogies, making this a tasty, nutritional dish that you will love.
Ingredients
Frozen Pierogi – Use a 16-ounce package of frozen pierogi. Any flavor of pierogi is delicious, and I’m partial to onion and cheddar.
Smoked Sausage – You’ll need one 13-ounce package of smoked sausage. You can find this with the deli meats in your grocery’s refrigerated section.
Cabbage – Depending on the size of your cabbage, feel free to use 1/2 to a whole cabbage.
Olive Oil – Use whatever oil you have on hand. This will help with browning and prevent the pierogies from sticking to the sheet pan.
Spices – I like to add a bit of onion powder and garlic powder, but it is completely optional.
Equipment
- Sheet Pan / Baking Pan
- Cutting Board
- Knife
- (y’all – you don’t even need a measuring cup – just eyeball it)
How to make This Sheet Pan Dinner
It only takes a few ingredients to make such a delicious meal! Once you see how easy it is to prepare this dish, it may quickly become one of your favorite dinners to make. *See the recipe card for complete ingredients and instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Slice the smoked sausage into bite-sized pieces and shred the cabbage thinly.
- Lay the sausage, pierogi, and cabbage on a baking sheet.
- Drizzle everything with olive oil, then top with garlic and onion powder.
- Bake for 15 minutes, then flip and toss the ingredients. Bake for another 15-20 minutes.
- Remove and sprinkle with a little black pepper.
Variations
- Feel free to add other vegetables that will stand up to the roasting like carrots or onions
- I like to add a spoonful of sour cream when serving. The cool, tartness balances with the richness of the pierogies.
- With both the sausage and pierogies, use your favorite flavor – kielbasa, turkey sausage, whatever you love.
- This recipe scales so easily. If you’re making for two people, use 1/2 a box of pierogies. If you’re feeding 8, double everything.
Frequently asked questions
You can use any kind of smoked sausage, including beef, turkey or polska kielbasa.
Absolutely. If you’re a cheese lover, you can sprinkle some cheddar cheese or any other type of cheese on top. Wait until the food is almost done cooking in the oven, remove the sheet pan, sprinkle the cheese on top, and then put the sheet pan back in the oven for a few more minutes to fully melt.
