Pan-Fried Pierogies image

I use Costco's brand (Santarelli's) to make this recipe. The box has 96 oz. split into two bags. I use about half a bag (24 oz). Whatever brand you buy, just make sure the pierogies have a thick pasta shell. If they're too thin, they can tear during the pan-frying. Also, it's good to use a soft spatula (one that can withstand high heat) to turn the pierogies over.

Time 30m

Yield 3-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

24 ounces frozen pierogies stuffed with potato and white cheddar cheese (see note above for brand recommendation)
water
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 large onion, sliced thick
salt and pepper, to taste (or Paula Deen's House Seasonsing, recipe on Zaar)

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add pierogies. Cook 4-5 minutes or until they float the top, drain.
  • In a large NON-STICK fry pan, melt the butter with the olive oil. Add onion and drained pierogies and season to taste with salt and pepper or House Seasoning.
  • Cook over high heat until the onion is soft and browned and pierogies are nicely browned. The pasta shell will get a little crunchy - it's delish!
  • Serve with a dollop of sour cream.
