Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound kielbasa sausage
- 2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes
- 16 ounces sauerkraut
- 1 medium yellow onion
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 teaspoon caraway seeds
- 1 tablespoon dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons butter
Instructions
Slice the kielbasa into 1-inch pieces and set aside.
Wash and quarter the Yukon Gold potatoes. Ensure they are similar in size for even cooking.
Finely chop the yellow onion.
Rinse the sauerkraut under cold water and drain it well. This will reduce its saltiness, but you can skip rinsing if you prefer a stronger tangy flavor.
In the crock pot, layer the potatoes on the bottom. Top with the drained sauerkraut and chopped onion.
Add the sliced kielbasa on top of the sauerkraut. This layering ensures the potatoes cook properly and absorb flavor.
In a small bowl, whisk together the chicken broth, caraway seeds, dijon mustard, brown sugar, and black pepper.
Pour the liquid mixture evenly over the ingredients in the crock pot.
Dot the top with small pieces of butter for added richness.
Cover and cook on high for 4 hours, or on low for 6-8 hours, until the potatoes are fork-tender and the flavors are well combined.
Stir gently before serving to mix the sauerkraut, potatoes, and kielbasa.
Serve hot and enjoy this comforting dish!
