Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Slice onion into thin half-moons. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large skillet over medium, then add onions with a pinch of salt.

  2. Step 2

    Cook onions, stirring occasionally, until deep golden and jammy, about 12 minutes. Transfer to a plate.

  3. Step 3

    Slice kielbasa into 1/2-inch-thick coins. Add remaining 1 tbsp oil to the skillet over medium-high heat.

  4. Step 4

    Sear kielbasa coins 2 minutes per side until edges are charred and crispy. Return onions to the pan and stir.

  5. Step 5

    Drizzle mustard over the sausage and onions, toss to coat. Season with pepper and taste.

  6. Step 6

    Serve on crusty bread alongside coffee for a classic Polish-style dinner.
