It’s nice when a meal can be made in one dish. In this case, get out your trusty cast-iron skillet, or any oven-safe skillet you have. The dish goes from the stovetop to the oven (just for a few minutes) to give you a cheesy and comforting dinner in about half an hour. Frozen pierogi are fried in butter and mixed with bacon, onion, garlic, and slices of smoked sausage ring.

Pierogi Sausage Skillet Ingredients

Smoked Sausage Ring: You could use any kind of smoked sausage you prefer, like andouille, hot smoked, or even Cajun style. Turkey smoked sausage would also be good!

Pierogi: I used frozen potato and cheese pierogi. But, with all the flavors out there, choose your favorite. Your best bet would be to make your own homemade pierogi!

How to Make Pierogi Sausage Skillet

As I mentioned, you only need one oven-safe skillet to make this recipe (plus a bowl to put the sausage mixture in for a moment). To get started, preheat the oven while you add the ingredients to the skillet. First, cook the bacon over medium heat. Add the slices of sausage and the onion. Cook until the onion is translucent. Then, add the garlic and cook for just an additional minute.

Transfer the sausage and onion mixture to the bowl. Tent it with aluminum foil to keep it warm as you brown the pierogi. Heat up butter in the same skillet and when hot, sear the pierogi. Add the sausage mixture back into the skillet, with the pierogi. Reduce heat to medium-low and add the heavy cream. Cook until thickened.

Finally, top the dish with shredded cheese and transfer to the preheated oven. Bake for just about 5 minutes, or until the cheese is hot and bubbly. You can also place it under the broiler for a minute or two to get a nice browning of the cheese. Remove the skillet from the oven and serve hot, garnished with parsley.
