KIELBASA BOW TIE SKILLET



Kielbasa Bow Tie Skillet image

Not only is this kielbasa pasta skillet a real crowd-pleaser, it comes together in just one pan. My daughters are picky eaters, but this reminds them of macaroni and cheese. I toss in their favorite veggies and they gobble it up! It freezes and reheats beautifully, too, so you'll want to fix extras for a fast entree later. -Lori Daniels, Beverly, West Virginia

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 tablespoon olive oil
½ cup chopped onion
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 pound kielbasa sausage, sliced
1 (14.5 ounce) can Italian-style diced tomatoes
1 (4 ounce) can sliced mushrooms
1 teaspoon white sugar

3 leaves fresh basil, julienned, or more to taste
1 cup shredded Cheddar-Monterey Jack cheese blend

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil for pasta.
  • Meanwhile, heat olive oil over medium-high heat in a deep skillet. Add onion and garlic to the hot oil and saute just until tender, about 5 minutes. Add kielbasa to the skillet and cook and stir until browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, mushrooms, sugar, balsamic, salt, black pepper, and red pepper. Reduce heat and let sauce simmer while you cook pasta.
  • Add penne to the pot of boiling water and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 11 minutes, stirring peas into pasta during last 2 minutes of cooking time.

EASY KIELBASA SKILLET DINNER



Easy Kielbasa Skillet Dinner image

The house always smells awesome while this very tasty, filling meal is cooking. It makes kielbasa worth stocking up on when it goes on sale and uses basic/cheap ingredients overall. Vary the vegetables depending on what you have on hand. For example add/replace broccoli with a can of corn and/or peas, etc. If you like a little heat, sprinkle a little hot sauce on top after it's cooked. This should make about 4 servings, but it almost always turns out to be split into 2 large servings between the me and the boyfriend. We like to crisp up/brown the kielbasa slightly before adding the vegetables.
