Polska Kielbasa and Caramelized Onions

 Quick and Easy Recipe Makes a Warm Salad or Sandwich Roll

Hello, my friends! Let me start this little post by telling you how this Polska Kielbasa and Caramelized Onions Recipe idea came about…

The other day, I found myself feeling a little nostalgic, and memories of my Oma and her wonderful cooking and baking came to mind. Oma is the German word for grandmother, and since my mother’s parents moved to the United States in the 1920s from Bavaria, that is what we called her. There’s a lovely little story about my Oma coming to America on a boat escorted by nuns to marry my Opa, but that will have to wait for another time.

My thoughts traveled through Oma’s German pancakes, nut rolls, and Schwetchken Küchen (plum tart), to her beef roast and homemade noodles, and Würst Salat (ring bologna and onion salad). My memories were so vivid; I could almost smell the yummy aromas. Now, I was hungry for some of Oma’s tasty dishes. With the crisp autumn weather, I wanted something hot, but my schedule demanded something quick and easy. So, that’s when one of Oma’s go-to ingredients came to mind—Hillshire Farm® Polska Kielbasa–it is perfect for Fall recipes.

After I picked up Rory from the library, we stopped at our local Walmart to grab the Polska Kielbasa, onion, steak rolls, and sauerkraut.

I was definitely in a German mood. So, why not celebrate my Bavarian heritage and all its grand traditions and Oktoberfest festivities? I pulled out a few of my Bavarian items to add to the fun.

Then, I got to work on dinner. I am telling you, if you want something mouthwateringly delicious to set on your table in about 20 minutes, this is it! This recipe is easy-peasy and ideal for an Oktoberfest gathering or anytime.

Here’s What You Need:

• Hillshire Farm® Polska Kielbasa
• 1 Large Onion
• Fresh Dill (chopped)
• Salt (to taste)
• 1-2 Tablespoons Olive Oil

3. Place onion in skillet to start getting tender

5. Open Polska Kielbasa (using the “Easy Open” feature on the packaging) and place in skillet on top of onions

6. Add a little water if needed to keep onions from sticking to skillet.

7. Let cook until onions are tender and slightly caramelized and Polska Kielbasa is cooked through.

8. Shortly before you are ready to pull the Polska Kielbasa and Caramelized Onions from the pan, add some fresh chopped Dill to the skillet, stir in well.
