Ingredients

  • 1.5 lb kielbasa or smoked sausage
  • 1 large, sliced yellow onion
  • 3 tbsp whole-grain mustard
  • ¼ cup beef broth or water
  • ½ tsp caraway seeds (optional)

Instructions

  1. 1

    Score the kielbasa skin in a crosshatch pattern, then slice into 1-inch-thick rounds.

  2. 2

    Heat a large skillet over medium-high until it shimmers. Add kielbasa rounds and sear 2 minutes per side until edges char.

  3. 3

    Push kielbasa to the side, add sliced onion, and cook stirring occasionally until golden and soft, about 5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Pour in broth and scrape up any browned bits on the pan bottom. Simmer 2 minutes until liquid reduces by half.

  5. 5

    Stir in mustard and caraway seeds (if using). Toss everything to coat and heat through, about 30 seconds.

  6. 6

    Serve hot in a bowl or on a plate with crusty bread and sauerkraut if you have it.
