Potato Kielbasa Skillet

I tried this recipe tonight. I have not cooked with red potatoes or spinach, so this was fun to try. We do not care for thyme, so I subsituted it with oregano. My kielbasa and potatoes were over cooked due to me talking to my sister on the phone. We liked this and will be keeping the recipe!


















1 lb red potatoes, cubed
3 tablespoons water
3/4 lb smoked kielbasa or Polish sausage, cut into 1/4 inch slices
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons cider vinegar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/4 teaspoon pepper
4 cups fresh baby spinach
5 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled

Place potatoes and water in a microwave-safe dish. cover and microwave on high for 4 minutes or until tender; drain. In a large skillet, saute kielbasa and onion in oil until onion is tender. Add potatoes; saute 3-5 minutes longer or until kielbasa and potatoes are lightly browned. Combine the brown sugar, vinegar, mustard, thyme and pepper; stir into skillet. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 2-3 minutes or until heated through. Add spinach and bacon; cook and stir until spinach is wilted. Makes 4 servings.
