My husband and daughter described it as heaven on a plate and my grandson cried for the last piece! Definitely a winner.

 

Polish Sausage, Sauerkraut, and Potatoes

Ingredients

Main Ingredients:

• Polish sausage, cut into large chunks – 1 ½ lbs
• Sauerkraut (with its juices) – 16 oz
• Gold potatoes, cut into large pieces – 5–6 medium

Liquids & Seasonings:

• Chicken broth – ½ cup
• Caraway seeds – 1 tsp
• Bay leaf – 1
• Salt and black pepper – to taste

DirectionsStep 1: Prepare the Sauerkraut Base

Pour the sauerkraut into the bottom of your slow cooker. For maximum flavor, leave the brine—this is what gives the potatoes their tangy richness.

Step 2: Layer Potatoes and Sausage
Evenly arrange the chopped potatoes over the sauerkraut. Place the sliced Polish sausage on top.

Step 3: Mix the Seasoned Broth
In a small bowl, whisk together the chicken broth, caraway seeds, and bay leaf. Pour the mixture evenly over the sausage and potatoes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 4: Slow Cook
Cover the slow cooker and cook on HIGH for 4 hours, or until the potatoes are tender and the sausage is heated through.

Step 5: Toss and Serve
Remove the bay leaf before serving. Gently toss everything together so the softened sauerkraut and flavorful juices coat the potatoes and sausage evenly.
