- 5 tablespoons butter
- 1 pound kielbasa, thinly sliced
- 25 mini pierogies

Instructions
- Cook Pierogies: Bring a pot of water to a boil and add the mini pierogies. Return the water to a boil and cook for 3 minutes until the pierogies float and are tender. Drain and set aside.
- Brown Kielbasa: Heat 2 tablespoons butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the thinly sliced kielbasa and cook, turning frequently, until it is well browned on all sides. Remove the kielbasa from the skillet and set aside.
- Sauté Onion: In the now empty skillet, melt the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter. Add the coarsely chopped onion and sauté over medium heat until tender and translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Combine and Heat: Return the cooked pierogies and browned kielbasa to the skillet with the onions. Stir gently to coat everything evenly with the melted butter and continue heating until everything is warmed through.
- Serve: Serve the pierogies, kielbasa, and onions warm. Enjoy this comforting and flavorful skillet dinner.
