Ingredients:

  • 2 -2 1/2 lbs turkey kielbasa
  • 1 large green pepper, cut in strips
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

Directions:

  1. Pierce kielbasa 4 or 5 times on each side with tip of a sharp knife.
  2. Simmer kielbasa and in water in a 12-inch heavy skillet, partially covered with lid, over moderately low heat until heated through, about 30 minutes (check after 15 minutes and add a little more water if skillet is almost dry).
  3. During the last 10 minutes of the kielbasa cooking time, saute your pepper strips in 1 Tbsp of olive oil in a small skillet until tender.
  4. Serve peppers with kielbasa pieces, sliced on the diagonal. Great sides could be rice, pasta; mashed/roasted, cheese-scalloped or au gratin potatoes. I made this meal with potato salad.
  5. Note: Instead of simmering in water, you could also saute the kielbasa (cut into 3 - 4 pieces) for 15 minutes in olive oil over med. heat, then add the pepper strips for the remainder of the 30 minute cooking time.
