Best Raspberry Kielbasa Over Cheese Grits Recipes

KIELBASA GRILLED CHEESE

Steps:

• Whisk the sugar and vinegar in a large bowl until the sugar dissolves, then whisk in 2 tablespoons vegetable oil. Add the coleslaw mix and herbs, season with salt and pepper and toss.
• Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the kielbasa and cook until browned on both sides, 2 minutes; transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
• Spread the mustard on the bread, then sandwich with half of the cheese, the kielbasa, jalapeno and the remaining cheese.
• Wipe out the skillet; add 1/2 tablespoon butter and melt over medium heat. Add 2 sandwiches and press another large skillet on top. Cook, pressing gently, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese melts, 4 to 5 minutes per side, adding another 1/2 tablespoon butter to the skillet when you flip. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with the remaining sandwiches. Serve with the coleslaw.

GRILLED PIEROGIES AND KIELBASA

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to medium. Grill the kielbasa, turning, until marked, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a baking sheet or platter.
• Meanwhile, whisk the mustard and vinegar in a large bowl. Slowly whisk in 2 tablespoons olive oil until smooth.
• Toss the onion and pierogies with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill, covered, until the pierogies thaw and the onion begins to soften, about 5 minutes. Turn the pierogies and onion and continue to grill, covered, until the pierogies are cooked through and the onion is tender, 4 to 6 more minutes. Transfer to the baking sheet or platter.
• Slice the kielbasa into pieces and add to the bowl with the mustard dressing. Roughly chop the onion and add to the bowl along with the pierogies and parsley. Season with salt and pepper and toss. Divide among shallow bowls.

RASPBERRY KIELBASA OVER CHEESE GRITS

Steps:

• In a saucepan, combine the water and milk. Bring to boil, then stir in the grits, reduce the heat to low, and simmer until thick, about 10 minutes. Stir in the cheese, and remove from the heat.
• Slice the kielbasa in half lengthwise, then into 1/2" slices crosswise. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sausage, mushrooms, onion, and garlic; cook and stir until browned. Stir in the preserves, and simmer until sausage and mushrooms are coated and sauce is smooth, about 5 minutes. Serve over cheese grits.
