Fried Pierogies with Butternut Squash

Fried Pierogies with Butternut Squash is a delicious and different recipe that's made easy because it only takes one skillet.

Prep Time: 5 minutes

Cook Time: 12 minutes

Total Time: 17 minutes

Yield: 3-4 servings

Ingredients:

  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 (16-ounce) box frozen potato stuffed pierogies
  • 2 cups frozen cubed butternut squash or sweet potatoes
  • 1/2 cup broken walnuts
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage

Preparation:

In large skillet, melt butter with olive oil over medium high heat. Add pierogies in a single layer. Cook, shaking skillet occasionally, for four minutes or until bottoms of pierogies are browned.

Carefully turn pierogies over, placing them in a single layer again. Top with the frozen squash and walnuts. Cover pan, lower heat to medium, and cook for 4 minutes, shaking pan occasionally.

Remove cover, add sage, and gently stir the pierogies, walnuts, and squash in pan. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until everything is hot. Serve immediately.
