How to Make Turkey Sausage And Kraut Skillet

  1. Heat a large skillet (oven-safe preferred) over medium heat.
  2. Add the drained sauerkraut, brown sugar, and Dijon mustard to the skillet. Stir to combine.
  3. Add the sliced apples and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened.
  4. Add the sliced turkey kielbasa to the skillet, spreading it evenly over the kraut and apples.
  5. Pour the beer over the sausage and kraut mixture.
  6. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low. Cover the skillet and cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the kielbasa is heated through and the apples are tender.
  7. If desired, for a crispier sausage, you can broil the skillet uncovered for 1-2 minutes during the last few minutes of cooking (watch carefully to prevent burning).
  8. Serve immediately. Optional: Garnish with fresh parsley or chives and serve with roasted red potatoes for a complete meal.
