culinary chronicles: Kielbasa & Potatoes

I'm making Turkey Kielbasa for dinner. This was something I ate growing up and have passed on the love to my plus 4. They really enjoy their 'hotdog's'. Its one of those, if they don't know it wont kill them kinda things. I let them think its a hotdog and in return they eat well! Its so easy and very comforting, especially for a Sunday Dinner like tonight.

Whatcha Need:

2 packages of Kielbasa- I used Turkey
1/2 to 1 stick of butter- Use your best judgement
Salt & pepper to taste
6 medium potatoes
1 small onion

What to do first

Melt 1/2 your butter in the pan on medium heat

While butter is melting, cut your kielbasa in 3 sections & then cut them long ways in half

Once butter is all melted, put your kielbasa, casing side up, in the fry pan and allow to brown nice and good

While Kielbasa is browning, chop your onions & peel and thinly slice your potatoes. Set them aside and well get back to them.

Once your kielbasa is all brown, remove from pan and set aside. DO NOT remove juices from pan! Defeats the purpose, Duh!

Now add your potatoes. Let them brown and get all crazy flavor filled. When they begin to get soft add your onions... Here is where you may need to add a little more butter...

Keep a close eye on your potato/ onion mixture so the onions don't burn, unless of course you like really burnt onions.

Keep mixing your onions & potatoes every so often until your onions become translucent.

Turn your heat down to medium/low and once it reaches that temperature, cover and let your potatoes and onions finish cooking. Make sure it has reached a lower temperature or you will successfully burn your food!
