Ingredients
 
 

  • 9 ounces mushrooms sliced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil or vegetable oil, divided
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 14 ounces kielbasa sliced
  • 1 brown onion thinly sliced
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • ½ tsp salt more to taste
  • ½ tsp black pepper
  • ½ tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp sweet paprika
  • 1 tsp dried marjoram or oregano
  • 1 tbsp tomato paste
  • 1.1 pounds sauerkraut drained
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 cup apple juice

Instructions
 

  • Get your prep done before you start cooking: Slice the kielbasa sausages. Chop the mushrooms, thinly slice the onion and mince the garlic cloves.
  • Heat your skillet over high and add mushrooms. Cook until they start to release moisture, add 1 tbsp oil and cook until brown. Remove from skillet.
  • Add butter and the remaining oil, then add kielbasa and cook until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Remove from skillet.
  • Reduce heat to medium. Add onion and garlic, cook for 3 minutes until soft and fragrant. Add salt, pepper, paprika, cumin and marjoram. Stir in tomato paste.
  • Add sauerkraut, then pour in apple juice and add the bay leaf. Give it a good stir, reduce heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes.
  • Finally, return kielbasa and mushrooms to the skillet. Simmer for another 10 minutes. Taste and adjust salt or pepper. Enjoy!
