Sometimes all I need is a good comfort meal to make me feel like the world is okay. And what says comfort food more than meat and potatoes?! This was a good variation of a dish I have tried in the past. This one has more flavor and a little sweetness to it, which was surprising but great. Skillet meals are so great for weeknights!
Potato Keilbasa Skillet
From: Recipe Shoebox
3 Tbs. water
3/4 lb. smoked kielbasa or Polish sausage, cut into 1/4-inch slices
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 Tbs. olive oil
2 Tbs. brown sugar
2 Tbs. cider vinegar
1 Tbs. Dijon mustard
1/2 tsp. dried thyme
1/4 tsp. pepper
4 cups fresh baby spinach ( I like to chop my spinach, but you can use them whole if you prefer)
5 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
Directions: Place cubed potatoes and water in a microwave-safe dish. Cover bowl with plastic wrap (no need to poke any holes) and microwave on high for 4 minutes or until fork tender; drain. (Mine took closer to 6 minutes before they were fork-tender)
In a large skillet on medium-high heat, saute kielbasa and onion in oil until onion is tender; about 3-5 minutes. (I skipped the oil and just used the bacon grease to fry it in.) Add potatoes; saute 3-5 minutes longer or until kielbasa and potatoes are lightly browned.
Meanwhile, combine the brown sugar, vinegar, mustard, thyme, and pepper; stir into skillet. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered for 2-3 minutes or until heated through. Add spinach and bacon; cook and stir until spinach is wilted. Yields 4 servings.
