Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 pound kielbasa sausage, sliced into 1/2 inch rounds
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil or butter (for sautéing)
  • 2 tablespoons sriracha sauce
  • 1 tablespoon honey or brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon lime juice (optional)

Garnish

  • Chopped green onions or cilantro, for topping

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Kielbasa: Slice the kielbasa into bite-sized rounds about half an inch thick for even cooking and easy eating. Pat them dry with paper towels to help achieve a nice sear.
  2. Sear the Kielbasa: Heat olive oil or butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the kielbasa slices in a single layer and cook until they get golden brown and crispy on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  3. Mix the Sauce: In a small bowl, combine sriracha sauce with honey or brown sugar, garlic powder, and a splash of lime juice if using. Stir until smooth and well blended.
  4. Coat the Kielbasa: Pour the sauce over the hot kielbasa bites in the skillet. Toss gently and cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly and glaze the meat.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Transfer the bites to a serving dish and sprinkle with chopped green onions or cilantro. Serve immediately while warm and enjoy every spicy, savory bite.

Notes

  • Choose Quality Kielbasa: A flavorful, authentic kielbasa makes all the difference in taste and texture.
  • Don’t Overcrowd the Pan: Give each piece space when searing to achieve optimal browning and crispiness.
  • Adjust Sweetness to Balance Heat: If the sriracha is too spicy, increase the honey or brown sugar slightly.
  • Get Creative with Garnishes: Experiment with fresh herbs, sesame seeds, or even a squeeze of fresh lime.
  • Serve Warm: These bites are best enjoyed immediately to retain their crispy exterior and saucy finish.
