Ingredients

  • avocado oil spray or use olive oil spray
  • 1/2 medium green cabbage
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
  • 1/2 tablespoon chicken bouillon paste I use Better Than Bouillon, more or less to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • freshly ground black pepper
  • 13 to 16 ounces pre-cooked kielbasa sliced (I use hardwood smoked turkey)
  • 20 ounces pierogies frozen (we like sour cream and chive)
  • kosher salt to taste
  • freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • paprika to taste

FOR SERVING:

  • mustard for kielbasa
  • sour cream for pierogies
  • snipped chives for garnish

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F to 425°F  (or 200°C to 220°C) depending on how crispy you want your pierogies.
    (400℉ for softer pierogies and 425℉ for crispier pierogies) Place a piece of parchment down in both a large rimmed baking sheet and a small quarter sheet pan and spray with avocado or olive oil spray.

PREP THE CABBAGE:

  • In a small microwave-safe bowl, measure and add butter, olive oil, bouillon paste and garlic powder. Heat at 5 second intervals until the butter is just about melted and whisk to combine.
  • In a bowl, add the thinly sliced green cabbage and pour in the bouillon mixture and season with freshly ground black pepper. Toss well to coat
    Note: Because the bouillon has salt in it, you DO NOT want to season the cabbage with any salt or else it will be overly salty.

Fill The Sheet Pans:

  • On the prepped larger pan, arrange sliced kielbasa and frozen pierogies. Spray the pierogies with olive oil spray and season with kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper and paprika.
  • On the smaller prepared pan, add all of the cabbage and arrange in a single layer. Slide both pans into your preheated oven and bake on separate racks for 15 minutes.
  • After the 15-minutes are up, carefully turn the pierogies and kielbasa. Season the other side of the pierogies with more salt, black pepper and paprika. Toss the cabbage and pop both pans back into the ovens. Rotate the pans and switch the rack they were on.
  • For softer pierogies bake for 5 to 10 minutes more (at 400℉). For EXTRA crispy, bake for 10 to 15 minutes (at 425℉).
  • Divide the kielbasa, pierogies and cabbage among 4 plates. I like to have some mustard for the kielbasa and sour cream for dipping the pierogies in - but of course, this is optional. Garnish with snipped chives if desired.

Notes

When Making A Double Batch: Use 2 large half sheet pans and prep as recipe states. When making the cabbage, use 1 medium head (thinly sliced) and double the butter, bouillon oil and garlic powder. On one pan arrange the pierogies (I only use 32 ounces when doubling and it's plenty!). To the second pan, add the sliced kielbasa (23 ounces) on one side and the cabbage  on the other side. Temp and times stay the same - but times could vary deepening on how hot your oven runs.
