Step 1
Heat oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high. Brown pork cubes in two batches, ~3 min per batch, until edges look caramelized.
Step 2
Remove pork to a plate. Add diced onion to the same pan, scraping up browned bits, and cook until translucent, ~2 minutes.
Step 3
Stir in tomato paste and cook 1 minute until fragrant. Return pork to the pan with the kielbasa.
Step 4
Add sauerkraut and broth, bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and cook 12 minutes, stirring once halfway.
Step 5
Uncover, taste, and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve hot in bowls.
