Ingredients

  • 1 pound (about 4 links) kielbasa sausage
  • 1.5 cups cherry tomatoes
  • 3 whole fresh chili peppers (jalapeños or serranos)
  • 3 tbsp yellow mustard
  • 3 tbsp ketchup
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high until a drop of water sizzles and evaporates immediately, about 2 minutes.

  2. 2

    Score the kielbasa skin in a crosshatch pattern with a knife. Add to the hot pan and cook 8–10 minutes, rolling occasionally, until all sides are dark and crispy.

  3. 3

    Push the kielbasa to the side. Add tomatoes and whole peppers to the pan, toss with olive oil, and cook 3–4 minutes until blistered and charred.

  4. 4

    Transfer kielbasa to a cutting board and slice into 1-inch rounds. Arrange on a plate with the charred tomatoes and peppers.

  5. 5

    Drizzle mustard and ketchup over the kielbasa. Serve hot, tearing into the peppers as you eat.
