Ingredients

• 16 oz polska kielbasa, sliced into 1 inch pieces
• ½ head of cabbage, shredded very thinly
• 16 oz pierogies (any flavor)
• ¼ cup olive oil, divided
• 1 ¼ tsp salt, divided
• ½ tsp black pepper
• ⅓ tsp granulated garlic

Instructions

1. Step 1: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a cookie sheet with baking spray.
2. Step 2: In a bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, 3 tablespoons of olive oil, ¾ teaspoon of salt, black pepper, and granulated garlic. Toss well to coat evenly.
3. Step 3: Arrange the pierogies in two short rows on the cookie sheet. Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sprinkle with ½ teaspoon of salt. It’s fine if the pierogies overlap slightly.
4. Step 4: Place the sliced kielbasa on the cookie sheet, then pile the seasoned cabbage into the remaining space.
5. Step 5: Bake for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven, stir the cabbage, and flip the pierogies. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes until everything is cooked through and golden.

Tips & Variations

• For extra crispiness, try broiling the pierogies for 1-2 minutes at the end of baking.
• Use smoked kielbasa for deeper flavor or substitute with your favorite sausage.
• Add sliced onions or bell peppers with the cabbage for added sweetness and color.
• If you prefer, boil the pierogies first according to package instructions before baking to ensure softness inside.

Storage

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet or oven to maintain crispness. Avoid microwaving if possible, as pierogies can become soggy.

Vegetables

• ½ head of cabbage, shredded very thinly

Other

• 16 oz pierogies (any flavor)
• ¼ cup olive oil, divided
• 1 ¼ tsp salt, divided
• ½ tsp black pepper
• ⅓ tsp granulated garlic

Instructions

1. Preheat and prepare pan: Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a baking sheet with non-stick baking spray to prevent sticking.
2. Toss cabbage: In a bowl, combine the shredded cabbage with 3 tablespoons of olive oil, ¾ teaspoon salt, black pepper, and granulated garlic. Toss everything together until the cabbage is evenly coated.
3. Arrange pierogies: Lay the pierogies out on the cookie sheet in two short rows. Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over them and season with the remaining ½ teaspoon salt. It’s fine if the pierogies overlap slightly.

5. Bake first 15 minutes: Place the sheet pan in the oven and bake for 15 minutes to start cooking the pierogies, kielbasa, and cabbage.
6. Stir and flip: After 15 minutes, remove the pan and stir the cabbage to redistribute it and flip the pierogies over to ensure even cooking.
7. Bake additional 15 minutes: Return the pan to the oven and bake for another 15 minutes until the pierogies are golden and crispy, the cabbage is tender, and the kielbasa is heated through.

Notes

• Use any flavor of pierogies you like—cheese and potato or sauerkraut work especially well.
• To save time, pre-shredded cabbage can be used but shredded fresh is preferable for texture.
• Serve with sour cream or your favorite dipping sauce for extra flavor.
• This recipe can be doubled using two sheet pans and adjusting bake times accordingly.
