    Cooking Sequence

    • Preheat grill; prepare parfaits and chill (10 minutes)
    • Prepare sausage recipe; serve (35 minutes)

    Instructions

    Sausage Pierogi Grill

    Ingredients

    • 1 large sweet onion
    • 1 medium red bell pepper
    • ¼ bunch fresh Italian parsley
    • 1 lb mild Italian pork (or chicken) sausages
    • 1 (16 oz) package frozen cheese-filled pierogies
    • 4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
    • 2 tablespoons coarse-ground Dijon mustard
    • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
    • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt
    • ¼ teaspoon pepper

    Steps

      1. Preheat grill (or grill pan) on medium. Cut onion into ½-inch-thick slices; cut pepper into quarters, removing stem and core. Chop parsley.
      2. Place sausages, onions, and peppers on grill and cover; grill 8–10 minutes, turning frequently, until sausages are 165°F and vegetables are tender. Remove from grill and cover to keep warm.
      3. Coat pierogies with 2 tablespoons oil. Place on grill and cover; grill 5 minutes without flipping. Meanwhile, cut sausages, peppers, and onions into bite-size pieces and place in large serving bowl.
      4. Flip pierogies and cover; grill 4–6 more minutes until hot and crisp. Add to sausage mixture.
      5. Whisk mustard, vinegar, salt, pepper, and remaining 2 tablespoons oil until blended; pour over sausage mixture. Stir gently (do not break pierogies) until evenly coated; sprinkle with parsley. Serve.
